Transmission.
Transmission "O" ring recall two months after purchase. In attempting repairs, techs broke transmission sensor, then failed to replace fluid after repair. Total shop time 3 weeks.
Transmission down shifts to go uphill, but fails to shift back to drive until I come to a complete stop. 5 service visits in 2 months where techs tried to rebuild transmission, replace broken sensors and finally replaced the entire transmission.
Techs pulled wrong car into garage and replaced head gasket when car was there for transmission.
Engine now knocks while in idle.
Loud thump when shifting.
Shifter sticks.
Passing gear won't engage.
Transmission fluid leak.
Gears grind when shifting.
Sounds like jet engine when decelerating.
It sounds more like you problem is caused by where you take your car for service rather than dodge itself.
This is a case of incompetent service technicians, not a bad car. My last Dodge car (an Omni) had 240,000 miles on it when I sold it, and in that time had had only 2 timing belts replaced and 2 brake jobs. At 240,000 miles the CV joints were just beginning to chatter a little. I've owned 6 Chrysler products. NONE has ever seen the inside of a dealer service department, or ever had any problems. I'd rather pay for a minor repair than trust the people who work in new car service departments.
