After many conversations with Chrysler associates, and many internet searches. . . There is an on going problem with the 2005 Dodge Magnum awd systems. Apparently Dodge used a friction disk setup in the transfer case, after time the left over debris and minerals clog the disks and cause a horrible shutter at low speeds during "parking lot maneuvers. " this issue was resolved in later years, but I see it ridiculous that just about every 2005 awd is affected by this and this is listed as a TSB and not a recall. Since Dodge will cover this under their power train warranty I see this as a ridiculous request to make people pay the service charge to have the clutch pack removed and have the fluids changed, when the Chrysler corporation feels it was and issue enough to cover it under there power train warranty.
