| Complete loss of transmission. this transmission has been properly taken care of -two fluid changes; when i went to get it repaired at the dodge dealership i was advised there were so many parts on back order for this problem that it would be a month or better to get the transmission repaired. total replacement became necessary. my opinion is -if there are so many on back ordered that it will take a month or more to fix the transmission this is a major problem across the fleet...one i should not completely pay for. *nm | |||

| Dt*: the contact stated the automatic transmission would not shift properly at 40mph which caused the vehicle to stall and operate at a reduced speed. the transmission light on the dash panel illuminated afterwards. the vehicle was seen by a dealer. the service department cleared the failure code and the light no longer illuminated. afterwards the problem persisted. the vehicle was seen by an independent transmission repair shop. the mechanic suggested replacing the valve pan or the transmission would lock up. the contact took the vehicle back to the dealer and relinquished any ownership of the vehicle. | |||

| Dt: the contact stated vehicle down shifted from 55 to 20 mph. when this happened she pulled over,turned the vehicle off, and restarted it. if the vehicle was not restarted it would continue to go only 20 mph. the dealership stated the transmission solenoid switch valve was latched in the lr position. this was not covered in the warranty, and no repairs have been done by contact despite the expense. *ak | |||

| I was driving to work, and transmission skipped, making noises, so drove home, and checked with repair man, indicated was transmission., called dealer, they said was out of warranty (3yrs, 36k miles), and i had 43000. they wanted me to bring it in, and my experience is you bring it there, and it cost twice as much., so i took it elsewhere, and then i saw a internet site that said they extended the warranty on the 2002's to 70k, and i had already had the work done by then by someone out of chrysler., they still said it would not have been covered., but that isnt how the website read with their article., i'm still looking for relief of $2000.00 for the transmission.*ak | |||

| We purchased 2002 chrysler concorde limited in december 2004. the vehicle had 36,000 miles and ran great. three months later the engine light indicator comes on and the needs service performed indicator. we take the car to the mechnaic ask them to perform a diagnostic check. the diagnostic results concluded that the engine light was on due to code number p0740 (tcc solenoid circuit fault on the transmission, associated with the solanid of the transmission. the mechanic advised us to contact chrysler regarding the power train that he thought was under warranty for 5 years/50,000 miles or 7 years/70,000 miles. we contacted chrysler dealership who first said the pwer train was under warranty of 5 years/50,000 miles. the day prior to having the car towed to the dealership called to remind that car was being towed the next morning the mechanic on duty looked up power train warranty and determined that the power train warranty was 3 years/36,000 miles. we had the car taken to aamoco transmisions and county transmission who both concluded that the transmission needs to be rebuilt or replaced and the cost is over $2,000. i am outraged. i am looking for something that clearly provides the details of the power train warranty. i also want to know why the warranty on the powertrain for 2003 models were increased to 5 years/50,00 miles. | |||
