Automatic Transmission problems of the 1999 Dodge RAM

Transmission was leaking oil consumer called dealer and explained the problem, and was told that warranty was 1000 miles over , they would have to charge him for it. It seemed that transmission mount was worn out.

Transmission not working properly. Transmission has become real hard to change and put into gear. Contacted dealer. Please provide more information.

Tires, though we haven't experienced a blow out or treads peeling off, the tires are wearing much quicker than they should. With only 12,000 mile on the vehicle, the tires look like it's been driven 50,000 miles. Mid October we called chrsyler in auburn hills, to let them know how unsafe we feel driving this truck. We have had this truck brought back to the dealer eleven times for warranty work, eight of which were for brake problems. (dot number: m32kerhx tiresize: p245/75r16).

I had stopped at a boat Ramp to launch boat. I tied end of rope to bumber of truck and the other end to the boat. I then was going to back down to water until boat floated off trailer and then pull ahead, stop and get rope and tie boat to dock. The rope snagged on the bumber of truck so I pulled up, stopped, got out of truck and walked to back of truck. I got rope off of bumber and was coiling it on the front of the boat when the truck jumped into reverse and almost injured me twice. Once when it almost backed over me and once when I tried to get into it to put into gear, but was too late and truck entered water and sunk. Everyone says that I left gear in reverse, but how did I get out and walk to the back of the truck before it started to move?? I think transmission was defective and dangerous.

Very bad engineer flaws, design, hard to keep going straight, trans. Vibrates/shakes truck,steering column feels loose,no help from hotline or dealer,engine spark knocks real bad under a load, rear brakes lock up constantly, Chrysler is aware of problems can't fix and meet epa emission law.

Ralphs Dodge replaced the rear end with any problems. Now the transmission is gone as of 11/ 12/1999 and still we are without a truck and it doesn't look they plan on fixing it anytime soon.

Transmission: failed " fixed" at luther motors bishop CA. (by addind oil???) failed again 40 miles later. Brought back to luther mototr aganst our wishes, was there for 6 more days. Problem un resolved. Was towed to vacaville Dodge CA. Recieved major job. Problems with the transmission continued (still ran but slipped and destabilized up hills, turnes ,and going in parking. App. 5000 miles later the engune" check light stayed on. Was towed to lithia Dodge in concord CA for repairs. Some transmission broblems still exists.

Reporting defective transmission parts; on two occasions the fifth gear went out due to a nut that retracted and caused the transmission to lose fifth gear. Now on third occasion they will replace transmission. Can NHTSA help or provide additional information on this matter.

Vehicle stalls when shifting gears. Taken to dealer 5 times, failed to find remedy. Dealer only recorded 2 of the 5 times vehicle was in for repairs.

Truck will not downshift without pushing accelerator about half way to the floor. Pushing the accelerator that far down could cause an accident. Manufacturer said there was no remedy for this problem.

While driving approximately 40mph transmission died/stalled out. It had started to jerk before going out. The rpms were revved up. Transmission went into neutral on its own. Then vehicle stopped. Was vacationing in south carolina when this occurred.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer to have the transmisision serviced, within 30 days the vehicle had transmission problems, counsumer found out that the vehicle was 3 quarts low on transmission fluid. Consumer is having trouble obtaining information about a recall (no specific details of the recall provided by consumer). Nlm.

While driving transmission locked up. Towed to a transmission repair shop and repaired, but same problem has reoccurred. Please add VIN.

I leased this vehicle new , and for the last three years, every 10,000 miles approximately, I have had to take it into the dealer to have the tracker bar replaced, tie rod ends have also been replaced. The front end still shimmies terrible, and it is difficult to control at times. I also have had transmission trouble, and engine skipping constantly. I am very upset with the way I am treated at the dealer also. They were very nice to me when they wanted to sell the vehicle but every time I bring it in to them and ask why they can't fix it, they get huffy and try to put the blame on me. Now I could see if the vehicle were old, but it has had problems since I got it! I waited along time to be able to afford a Dodge pickup, and I am very disappointed, I should have gotten a chevy. I tried to talk to the dealership about lemon lawing it but they won't talk to me .
