Consumer Description

TRUCK STALLS DAILY. ONLY STALLS WHEN COMING TO A STOP. ONCE COMPLETELY STOPPED THE TACHOMETER JOLTS UP AND DOWN, MAKING THE TRUCK LURCH FORWARD, AND WILL SOMETIMES STALL COMPLETELY. DOES NOT HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING, OR AT LOW SPEEDS, ONLY AT COMPLETE STOP AND IN DRIVE. IF IN NEUTRAL THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN. THIS IS UNSAFE TO LOSE CONTROL OF YOUR TRUCK AND AT TIMES IT LURCHES FORWARD TRYING TO GET THE CORRECT RPM. I HAVE SEEN ALL OVER THE INTERNET HOW WIDESPREAD THIS PROBLEM IS AND DODGE HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. MANY TIMES I HAVE SEEN WHERE THIS HAS OCCURRED TO PEOPLE WHILE DRIVING! THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT FINE EXCEPT THIS, IT HAS TO BE A COMPUTER PROBLEM AND NEEDS REPLACED. I SEE OFTEN WHERE PEOPLE CHANGE MANY PARTS, SOMETIMES HELPING BUT USUALLY NOT. *TR
