Description of the problem	2006 dodge ram 1500 quad cab, i purchased and have had numerous problems from the start. The transmission engages in such a way as to cause my body to move forward then back, i took it back to the dealership on three occasions, they changed the fluid and put in two new filters, still same problem, i was told by the mechanic of 22 years that's the new transmission feature to keep it from wearing out, it only engages when you stomp on the gas??? 30000 miles started leaking black fluid at front wheel, took to dealership, said suspension was gone, part has been on back order since august 2008 it is now feb. 2009 and no expected arrival date of the part.
