What owners say
Automatic transmission went out completely after 58,000 miles, just under 5 years of use. The vehicle was serviced regularly for all recommended preventative maintenance per vehicle handbook. In addition, it was taken in for transmission check-up once during the first 36,000 miles and was informed that everything was okay. I still felt there was a problem due to the fact that there was a high pitched whinning noise coming from the transmission. Also transmission seemed like it was slipping.
Transmission "grabbing" and "slipping" in all gears. Most noticable on the highway. Transmission goes from overdrive to one and sometimes two lower gears at highway speed. Vehilcle will jump and sputter. Vehicle was taken to dealer who did not get it repaired. It was also taken to my local mechanic, who says it's a lemon. (I have no faith in the dealer who sold me the garbage after they claimed to have not figured my fianancing correctly abd hit me with a $975 additional fee.) ellenville dodge.
The over drive will engage and disengage by itself,then the transmission started slipping. The dealership replaced the overdrive solenoid. The problem still exist. The cause of the problem was due to the pressure boost valve cover plate holes not being big enough. There's a tsb 211100 on this issue, in which it indicated that the dealership will replace the existing plate with a plate that has bigger holes to correct the problem.
Consumer states, vehicle's transmission slips out of gear and is unable to drive. Dealer notified. Please provide additional information. Ts
