problem #1

Mar 272007

Magnum 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 35,900 miles
Engine quiting at highway speeds and at take off, resulting in uncontrolable vehicle. Transmission shudder when overdrive engaged. Dealer corrected fill tube seal defect, unkown if fluid flush performed. Shudder occured again, dealer said this time it was caused by bad/worn spark plugs, not transmission ($237). Unknown if tsb for ignition coil was performed, when asked dealer said all related tsb's for Magnum VIN had been applied. Left dealer and in 10 minutes check engine light was on. Made appointment for next day.
