Consumer Description

Bought 1/16/23, Failed 4/1/23 Transmission failed at 1,421mi. While towing a light trailer utilizing the tow/haul mode through the mountains of VA traffic. Stepped on the fuel pedal and an audible “Clunk” was heard. Immediately after, we lost all forward momentum and we’re able to slowly creep off the highway. Safety of all was put at risk as a dead vehicle was now blocking traffic on the highway. Check “engine” lamp came on immediately after audible sound. Gears 1-4 were inoperable with only 5-6 and reverse functioning. After further review, a TSB was published and sent to dealerships 1/11/23 stating the potential issue of a faulty part within the transmission of 2022 Ram 3500 6.7L models.
