Well, lets see. I have had the car only since April 30th 2009 and was on the way home from a doctors office, 3 hours away and the care went into limp mode. I had to take it to the shop where the input and output sensors were replaced. The car ran good for a couple of hours and then it went to doing it again. In total, it cost me $150. Then I took it back to the dealership and ran diagnosis which cost another $80, and they tell me that the transmission computer was bad, so they ordered the $253 part. Then in the process of putting in the transmission, it went out completely. So, now that's another $500 for a used transmission. Not counting the labor. So now I really only got to drive the car 1 week without having problems, and it sucks. I just want to blow the son of a biscuit up!!! I will never own another Dodge again. I'm going back to Chevy!
