NHTSA Complaint #10783627 — 2008 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN

MY VAN HAS STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS CHANGING GEARS BETWEEN THE SPEEDS OF 30-60 MPH. THIS MOST FREQUENTLY OCCURS AROUND THE SPEEDS OF 40-50 MPH, BUT HAVE, HOWEVER, OCCURRED AT ALL SPEEDS WITHIN THE 30-60 MPH RANGE. THE VAN ALSO OFTEN ACCELERATES SLOWLY AFTER COMING TO A FULL STOP. DURING BOTH GIVEN INSTANCES, IT WILL BE SLUGGISH AND SOUNDS LIKE IT NEEDS TO SHIFT GEARS YET DOES NOT DO SO. THIS PROCESS ALSO GREATLY DEPLETES MY GAS AS THE TRANSMISSION ISN'T SHIFTING PROPERLY. I HAVE INQUIRED ABOUT A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT HAVE FOUND THAT THERE AREN'T ANY. I, HOWEVER, HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHER OWNERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. THE DATE I WILL PROVIDE BELOW IS APPROXIMATELY WHEN THIS STARTED OCCURRING, BUT DOES NOT IMPLY THAT THIS SITUATION ONLY OCCURRED ONCE AS IT CONTINUES STILL.
