Description of the problem	I have a 2001 dodge ram with 23,600 miles on it. Two weeks ago the transmission completely failed 2 hours form my house. It left me stranded on the side of the road with a truck load of hunting gear. Of course it had to be towed to the nearest dealer. Diamler chrysler could care less that it was 9pm and i had no way home. The dealer in annapolis rebuilt the transmission - they claimed the torque converter failed. They had the vehicle for a week. 3 days after i got the vehicle back, the transmission started to fail again. Now its at leesburg dodge (va) and they are in the process of rebuilding it a second time. This truck has no tow hitches and has never towed a heavy load. It is not abused but just failed. This is unnacceptable and if things are not made right with me, i will never buy another dodge again.
