Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION WILL LOCK UP IN "LIMP" MODE SO THAT THE SPEED WILL NOT GO OVER 45 WHILE THE ENGINE IS RACING AT A HIGH RPM. THIS IS NOT A GREAT FEELING TO BE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENS. ANOTHER POOR DESIGN BY THE ENGINEERS. ALSO, THERE IS NOT A DIPSTICK ON THE TRANSMISSION TO CHECK THE FLUID LEVEL. ALSO ANOTHER PAIR ENGINEER DESIGN. CHYSLER VEHICLES USED TO BE TOP RATED FOR PERFORMANCE AND THOSE ARE THE ONLY VEHICLES I'VE OWNED SINCE 1967! I'M GETTING SO FRUSTRATED WITH MY CHYSLER VEHICLES TO THE POINT THAT I MAY HAVE TO START BUYING A DIFFERENT BRAND. THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER!!
