Consumer Description
The transmission failed while pulling my 5th wheel RV trailer. It is currently at a Ram dealership waiting to be repaired. It failed going up a hill on a two lane road without a shoulder forcing me to stop in my lane 3/4 the way up a country road. I was forced to put my parking brake on and emergency flashers until the sheriff’s car arrived 10 minutes later. This put my families safety and others as the traffic went around me and others cresting the blind hill in front of me. The dealer has confirmed that it is a failed transmission and it is an ongoing issue for these trucks. I’m assuming that the manufacturer has inspected these ongoing issues with this transmission. A warning light did come on at the moment the transmission failed. Other then that no warning.
