Description of the problem	I have contacted dodge 5 times to have them replace my transmission and differential as they are not working properly. They don't shift when necessary, they don't engage when needed and as a result i have almost been in 2 accidents. The first happened a few weeks ago when after they had failed to detect any problems while my truck was in for service and my complaint that the transmission and differential were not working properly, the drive shaft actually fell off the truck while it was in motion and the bolt holding the u-joint for the drive shaft shot into the differential resulting in the rear wheels locking up. I was in the midst of traffic when this happened and 2 cars swerved to miss me. I had it towed to the dealer, and the replaced the drive shaft and a couple pieces in the differential, but didn't address the transmission issue and now the differential wasn't working properly and making noise. After contact dodge about it again, they are telling me that the dealer says there's nothing wrong so they wont replace the transmission or the differential even though they are covered under warranty. The dealer specifically told me that they know something is wrong, but they aren't sure exactly what and the only way to really fix the issues would be to replace the entire transmission and the entire differential because they each have some many parts to them. At this point, i would like to file an official complaint as it seems the only way dodge will honor their warranty is if someone dies. Yesterday i was making a left turn and oncoming traffic almost hit me because the transmission wouldn't engage in gear for the truck to move forward.
