About 3 months ago my van started making noise. While I was driving. At times it would hesitate to go up hills and when coming to a light it would shake and sometimes shut off. The rpms would go crazy at times while at a stop. When turning it would shake when I would take the turn. I went to have it checked and it wasn't giving any inquiries about what was wrong. When it was diagnosed on sept 27th it just said that the passenger door had something wrong with it. On oct 3,2019 the check engine light finally came on. I brought it in to be diagnosed. It said it was the tcc had my appointment today for it to be fixed (October 8,2019) come to find out it was the transmission. I feel that the Chrysler should pay for this problem because the diagnostic was wrong and it took over 3 months to get a check engine light to go on. I'm on disability and live paycheck to paycheck. I am still paying on this vehicle and didnt think that in the 2 yrs. That I would be paying for a transmission at 72,000 miles. This vehicle was never on the recall list but I believe it should have been.
