1 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 08/23/2010

Car sticks in 2nd gear during driving and frequently stops moving, going into limp mode. While driving the car will not accelerate and the rpm will go from 2 to 4. When decelerating and breaking, it will act erratic often as if it was placed in neutral and jerk. While in a parking lot surrounded by pedestrians the did the same and did not stop as it should have. This problem is unpredictable and can lead to accidents as it may occur at any time (on the freeway and hillsides). Dealerships will tell people the computer is returning a p1776 and p0700 code. I was told to get another transmission. A different repair station suggested a new solenoid pack for the 2003 Dodge Intrepid ES 3. 5l. The solenoid pack with build date ranges from 3001 and 0603 may be defective (search "21-008-04 rev. A" service bulletin). This is a big problem because it will destroy your transmission if not addressed properly and has almost caused an accident involving pedestrians. Please have your serviceman check the build on the solenoid pack.

2 Vehicle Speed Control problem
