Re: What's a warranty?
It's mentioned I think, des sources Chrysler dodge jeep.
Hope you don't suffer like I have ill post the final outcome when I get the truck back next week.
BTW I'm not naming the dealership to slander or disrupt business. If I do, its just the truth.

Re: What's a warranty?
Remember dealerships are independently owned, Chrysler will pay for the parts but will not pay the dealership for the lost wages in doing warranty work, thats why they don't like doing warranty work period. Extended warranties are just a cash grab to try and offset those costs. You can also go to another Chrysler dealership, just cause you bought it there doesn't mean you have to service it there. Here in Calgary the Chrysler dealerships suck for warranty work, but just north of calgary in Airdrie they are more than happy to do it because they know they will be gaining another customer.

Now that there is an open work order history for warranty work it will always be a fight. I'd find another dealership to deal with this one is just shafting you and it goes all the way from the owner to the mechanics which isn't good. Kinda sounds like they all knew it was a POS to begin with.

I new it its lemonade. Could you elaborate why it will always be a fight? Are you a Chrysler mechanic I've read your other posts and you seem pretty knowledgeable.
Oh and It's ok for the number if its on my manual ill find it I really thank-you guys for your help and suggestions I really hope this rebuild fixes the problem.
One last thing why would I get a rebuild wouldn't it be cheaper to just replace the Tranny with a fresh one?
I hate dealing with dealers they seem to really become your enemy when it comes time for them to pay up.

Well I got it back, The transmission shifts so firmly and smoothly. I guess that's what a rebuild would do, but still a job to get it into lockup. Tell me if this is normal cause I'm losing it. At 120km/h rpms at 2350 until i either let go of the gas pedal like its manual or put it on cruise control and press the decel button a few times only then will the rpms drop to2050 at 120km/h.
I really can't take it no more, seems like I paid 30k for a problematic lemon. I've been to the dealership like 10 times now in the last 2 months and I only had The truck for that long. Can I get my money back? Because this really isn't fair I told them about this 3-4 days into owning the truck and its been a battle since.
PLEASE HELP

Re: What's a warranty?
I've just got a lot of guys in my Jeep Club that have done this run around with the dealers over just about every issue related to a jeep or any other vehicle. One friend was having issues with a leaking front crankshaft seal on his '09 JK, the dealer told him it was not covered under warranty because he had driven it in mud???? My bud says to the dealer "its a jeep,jeeps are Trail Rated" dealer says "Trail Rated" doesn't cover what's wrong and its mostly a sales pitch anyway!? After a bunch of searching we found a recall sent out by Chrysler to the dealerships about a possible leak at this same area due to Porosity in the engine casting and that it is to be repaired under warranty. He had to print out the recall and bring it into the dealership, then they act like they didn't know about it or try to convince you it's another problem all together. In my opinion dealerships suck and should not be trusted. I don't know of anyone who has NOT had a problem with a dealership.

After a quick search this is what I found that may have to do with your situation: TSB# 0803006 PCM initialization Problems, TSB#SB-18-009-09 REVA Automatic Transmission Control Module needs to be selectively erased & reprogramming of the Power Control Module with new software.
These have been issued by Chrysler to fix problems with the Automatic Transmission. Take these into the dealership and see what they have to say, but in all honesty I'd go to a different dealership if I were you.
