| Power Train problems |
The car wont move fwd until it suddenly catches its gear especially when its hot when the car is running for a long period of time and at a stop , or during a turn. The engine runs fine but the physical power is not reaching the wheels , car will shut off if its not reaching it power , cars feels like goes into natural when it slips and finally catches its gear to move fwd . This has happen all the time at a contains stop and ready to move fwd or when I'm getting ready to turn during on going traffic car wont catch its gear to move fwd and gets stuck to not move as if it went into neutral . Safety hazard as I been sending this to the dealership multiple times and they are stating they cant find the solutions but always happens when I drive the car for long period , I have warranty and dont feel they are looking at it properly at bill luke , got sent to them twice for the same problem but getting worst now.
We purchased this vehicle new. Over time it started to surge on mild acceleration in all gears and all speeds. Dealership reset the transmission and engine computers. It was better but still noticeable. Over time though it gets worse. Dealership just does the same thing and resets the engine and transmission. This last time though it was still quite noticeable and has gotten much worse. We contacted the dealership and they plan to just reset them again as there is no other fix. The surging is unsafe especially in parking lots where you might be giving a little throttle and the car isn't really moving so you push harder and then it takes off.
Intermittently the vehicle will jerk as if it looses power when driving, it has also happened when at a stop light and acceleration begins it jerks. It happens more often when at a complete stop and vehicle starts to accelerate. Vehicle was taken to melloy Dodge in los lunas nm and they stated they were unable to find a problem.
