Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This 1999 dodge ram was sold to me by ozark dodge in ozark, mo. this vehicle is a replacement for a 2001 that was a mechanical disaster. i had asked when i decided to accept their offer on the 1999 that they would do the following: change all fluids, alignment,and thoroughly go through this truck. 3 mos after the initial purchase i began having transmission problems. the transmission would slip and hunt for gears. i took it to aurora dodge in aurora, mo. for the warranty repairs and they told me all repairs had been completed. there was also a note on the service order that the fluid had been previously poorly serviced. which tells me that ozark dodge didn't do a dam thing to this truck before they gave it to me to drive away!! i took the truck home and shortly thereafter (8 days) it began slipping and hunting for gears again. i have it in the shop for repairs again this will be it's 2nd visit to the shop for this.!! i cannot find anyone to help me to resolve this matter, i have called chrysler customer service and other numbers that they had given me and to no avail. this is the 2nd piece of chrysler ?!@#$% they have given me. this has to end now!!! i am requesting that if this problem cannot be repaired that the original dealership that sold it to me (ozark dodge be responsible for ordering me a brand new truck with the same options on it with a standard transmission instead of an automatic trans. i have all paperwork dating back to the purchase of the 2001 that they sold me knowing that it was not road ready and a hazard to whom ever drove it!!! *tr
