Ram 3500 6-cyl Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 22,000 miles
Intermittent problem. Truck (2006, 3500 quad cab dually) sometimes acts like the brakes are not releasing or the transmission is not engaging for a few seconds when accelerating from a complete stop. Took it to a local dealer (orange park Dodge in jacksonville, fl. Who could not replicate the problem. I had someone tell me that they knew someone in la. That had the same problem and their dealer knew exactly what was wrong and affected repairs. Unfortunately I don't remember who that was.
