Wow another trip to the transmission place. . . . This is beginning to get ridiculous. We are at the transmission place again. The hesitatiion while in motion to get into traffic or while at a stop light we are literally shoving our foot through the floor board while the truck is trying to determine whether or not it wants to shift1-2. We lhad to limp home from a road trip and take it back to our transmission place we had just rebuilt it 8 months ago for the same reason we took it to him in the first place. We know for a fact what parts were used to rebuild the tranny, and we should have any problems, only for them to say OH when you have changed out your batteries or such the electrical could also mess with the governor or the solenoid. Well let's just say we have not changed batteries nor have we towed anything in the last 16 months. Dodge needs to help fix this problem. This is becoming very costly as well as an endangerment while driving or stopped in traffic and the truck begins to buck and wanting to shift the gears at the wrong time and us lose control while stopped or while driving it decdes to shift finally. We cannot afford for our children to drive this vehicle if it is going to continue to become an issue with the tranny.

2004 Dodge Ram 2500 has an unknown transmission problem. Shifts okay from cold start, but sporadically it will not shift into 2nd gear when engine is warm. Once the engine is warm, if the engine is turned off and then is restarted (such as a stop at a store, gas station, etc. ), it goes into first gear okay, but then winds out and will not shift into 2nd gear. The only way to get it to shift again is to turn the engine off and then restart it. Then it will shift correctly. This is dangerous because many times when we pull out into traffic there is no place to safely pull to off the road to stop the engine. We have had to pray for red lights so we could shut off the engine off for a moment. We have had the governor pressure sensor replaced twice and have also replaced the transducer and the transmission solenoid and the problem remains.

We had the same issue happen again. Accelerating to move into traffic and yet again the truck begins to buck and act all wacky. . . This makes it very difficult when trying to manuever in and out of traffic and avoid getting rear ended or t-boned because of the delay in the truck trying to shift into the approriate gears. This time we had to replace and rebuild the transmission, I don't like shelling out that kind of money when Dodge is fully aware of this problem and refuses to recall the vehicles which they are aware of with the solenoid issues either getting stuck open or closed and making the repairs, making it very costly to the consumer. We are very lucky we did not get rear ended or t-boned while traveling a distance and limp back to our house and concerned for our family while in this vehicle. Very angry consumer with Dodge for not wanting to be responsible for previous vehicles to be repaired, so they change the parts to enhance the transmission to a self greasing solenoid and inside parts to avoid this costly repair to themself.
When pullin gout into the traffic the vehicle's rpm's was race off and the vehicle would buck and not want to shift into gear while in a moving motion. We had to literally push the gas pedal to the floor before it would jump into the next gear. The solenoid was replaced.
2002 Dodge Ram 2500 3/4 ton diesel,4 spd auto transmission. Transmission doesn't always down shift in to 1st gear after a stop. Trans starts in 2nd gear
making acceleration very sluggish. June 1, 2005 had dealer replace governor
