Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problems of the 2013 Dodge Durango

The check engine light came on, and it was taken to the dealer a few days later for service. I was told that it was code p0741: torque converter clutch circuit performance and that it was a Chrysler star case: s1321000013, which meant that the only solution was to replace the transmission, at a cost of $5,000. The vehicle had an extended warranty that recently expired, only has around 84,500 miles and has been serviced regularly. I contacted Chrysler for financial assistance as this issue was not my fault and was denied. Called in twice, wrote a formal letter of complaint, and sent an email to Chrysler complaint department. Have yet to receive any response back. Vehicle is not safe to drive and currently parked.

Our Durango was purchased brand new in 2013. By the first 10,000 miles I could tell that the transmission was slipping. It would sound out of gear a lot of times, and would lack power when accelerating as if I weren't giving it gas. I reported this to the dealership, who repeatedly dismissed it as being nothing. Finally at approx. 30,000 miles+, my check engine light came on. The dealership dismissed it as being a sensor problem. But the check engine light came back on within a week. The dealership attributed this to the weather! finally at approx. 45,000 miles, the dealership said my torque converter was bad and I needed a new transmission. However, instead of putting in a new transmission, they rebuilt ours. Some 40,000 miles later, we noticed the same symptoms again. However, no check engine light came on. And once again, we were told it was nothing. As the problem persist, we decided to take the vehicle in for a transmission servicing. However, the dealership could not do it. We were told that our torque converter was bad again, and we needed a new transmission. But this time we would have to pay for it, as the warranty had expired at 100,000 miles. Never mind the fact that they had to replace/rebuilt it at 45,000 miles. Go figure? fast forward to the present. . . . . Our transmission has gone out again. This will be the third replacement, and fourth transmission for our vehicle. Something is definitely wrong. We've also noticed that the truck will stall at times while in motion. It will simply turn off! this was terrifying, and by the grace of god, didn't cause an accident.
