Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Driving down intrastate highway in 5th gear, complete loss of power (as if shifting into neutral). vehicle taken to transmission shop...nut holding 5th gear backed off--disengaging 5th gear. this is a well know problem with dodge diesels. dodge introduced a retrofit kit to hopefully resolve problem. if the problem requires a retrofit, why not recall the transmissions and fix the problem. a nut backing out cost me $1400 plus 2 weeks of no vehicle...an phelps. *ak |
