I was getting onto the interstate when I noticed my RPM were around 5000 and would not go down. I realized the transmission had locked in second gear. This is a very common problem with the junk A604/41te transmission that Chrysler made.

When the car was purchased 11/01. I was informed by a Dodge tech that the transmission was going to go "out" around 50,000 miles. I have heard this from numerous Dodge owners and mechanics. At 52,874 the transmission quit shifting and we had to take it to the dealer for repair according to the extended service contract that I purchased with the car. The contract was with an outside company. The contract company when called about repairs also stated that they are aware of the transmission problems associated with Dodge/Chrysler products. The car was at the dealer for 2 weeks awaiting parts and repair.

I was traveling around 80mph on I 75. All of a sudden the transmission slipped. It was like hitting a wall. I went from 80 mph to less then 30 mph. Trasmission is now slipping infrequently.
