Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: At 1,200 miles i was going 70mph (cruise control "on") up a hill on rt 40 in tennessee and the transmission went into limp mode 2nd gear. engine light came on. i drove the shoulder at 30mph and took an exit. roadside assist towed it to helms dodge. they pulled a "p0750" dtc code (solenoid a fault i think) but the transmission had reset and they couldn't make it go bad in 13 miles of driving. i asked them to check fluid level -- they said they would. they said if it happens again to turn it off for a few minutes and it may reset again. but, i made it home to ohio again without incident. today, at 2,900 miles, it happened again! my wife had just driven it home from work and parked for 30 minutes (engine off). we went to go out to eat and 1000 feet from home (at 20 mph) it went into limp. but no engine light this time. i drove back into the driveway and let it sit (off) about 10 minutes. then i tried it again and it shifted okay. i called the kings' chrysler/dodge dealer service rep (rob) and he said i should have it towed in by roadside assistance. which i just did... bill's towing picked it up at 9:15 (11-7-07) to be continued.... *tr |
