Re: [RC] Dodge Ram Transmissions - Mary Ann Spencer
Seems we all have had our nightmares with truck XXXX
or ??? Sorry about all this but it seems many of us have had some sort of
nightmare with 'a brand name' vehicle. Seems so similar to our luck with
horses. Some work with one and not another. Just another ingredient
in the many variables of our lives with horses and getting them transported to
where we want to go. mas
I have a 97 Dodge that as soon as my divorce is final I'm trading for
anything BUT a Dodge. In the past 1.5 years it's had a rebuilt
transmission (Jan 04 was in the shop for 2 weeks while I was on a week long
trail ride)(extended warranty and a step son who is the sales manager at the
local Dodge place), bought with 4 passenger tires on it that all had to be
replaced, a water pump, warped exhaust manifold (those were in Jan of this
year just prior to the annual trail ride AGAIN) and time for my next trail
ride (February) and the drive train crapped out...nope, no more Dodge vehicles
in my future again!
<<<We have a 1999 Dodoge Ram 2500 V10 - We started
having transmission problems at around 60,000 miles while the truck
was still under warranty - The dealership sort of bandaged the the
transmission and we had to rebuild at 108,000 miles after the warranty
expired. Has anyone else had similar problems? We are trying to
deal with the Dodoge dealership and any input would be appreciated!
Thank you. Pam and Doyle Bailie>>>
I thought these transmissions were under a recall. We have a
friend who had a Dodge truck that had the transmission replaced three times,
and he still bought another Dodge. We have a Dodge dealership right
down the street from us. The problem was so bad that they would keep
transmissions in stock and got so good at changing them out they could do it
in a half hour.
