problem #4

Car "clunks" when going from reverse to drive, sporadically. Also the transmission "slips" occasionally. I have brought it to the dealership, changed all engine mounts, November 2020. Brought it back a week later when I could get an appointment, still doing it. They claim I am not "stopping fully" before going from reverse to drive, and say they have done all they could. Spoke to friend who also owns a Dodge Journey. She has the same problem. I feel this is a safety issue since it is obviously damaging the transmission each time this happens, and that it is not slipping when accelerating and changing gears (auto transmission).

  • 25,739 miles
The transmission is stalling at 25739 miles. I bought it in April of 2020, 6 months ago. When accelerated the engine struggles to get over 65 miles and revs incredibly. Then the tachometer shoots up and down giving me unstable speeds. This happened on the expressway continuously. It is still under warranty and I am taking it to the Dodge dealership tomorrow. There is also a shake I feel and vibration.
