Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 CREW CAB 5.7L HEMI 2WD AND IT CONTINUES TO STALL EVERY NOW AND THEN AT LOW SPEEDS OR AT A COMPLETE STOP. VEHICLE WILL START RIGHT UP WITH NO PROBLEM BUT BATTERY GAUGE TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO RISE TO OPERATING LEVELS. TRANSMISSION ALSO FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO SLIP AT TIME OF STALL. HAD ENGINE AND TRANS CHANGED, BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED OUT OKAY AS WELL. DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT A LOT OF INCIDENTS HAPPEN AFTER VEHICLE TRANSMISSION HA BEEN SERVICED OR TRANSMISSION FLUID IS LOW; OTHER INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM HAVE SAID THEY HAD THE ERG VALVE, TPS SENSOR, MAP SENSOR AND EVEN SOFTWARE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT YOU END UP SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT. I DON'T KNOW WHY CHRYSLER DOESN'T ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. *JB
