The transmission on the Dodge Magnum has many issues. The check engine light come on and off signaling that your transmission is not shifting properly. A person can feel a "thump" and the car will momentarily stall. Have taken to the dealership continuously for repair. The check engine light will still come on and off randomly. The dealership say they can not repeat the incident. A blog on edmunds. Com on "Dodge Magnum transmission problems" has several entries complaining about the same incident and dealerships saying the same issues but no real answers. My problems occurred about with 40k on the odometer. Others reported earlier incidents.
