Description of the problem	I did not have a accident, but my transmission began to fail in such a manner that the transmission did not know what gear it was supposed to be in. One day it would be fine and the next it might begin ok and then ten minutes later it would start off from a stop light in 2nd or 3rd gear and it was difficult to pull into traffic. Dodge is aware of the problem because the dealerships are stocking the internal transmission parts to fix it. My mechanic talked to a nearby dodge dealer to obtain the parts and they said they knew of the problem and had a good supply of parts if needed. We also spoke to two different transmission shops that said this was a common problem. The necessary parts that needed to be replaced to fix this were a governor compression solenoid and pressure switch. Both of which are located in the gear box just above the pan. The parts were only available from dodge and cost about $220. 00 just for the parts. I would like to know if dodge has reported this problem. I have been in contact with them inquiring why they have not done a recall since they are aware of the problem and all they have told me so far is that it is a lengthy process that involves your department.
