2000	At about 2000 mi. The tranny started to moan when put in reverse. The moan goes away after the truck warms up. I called the dealer and they said that they are aware of it, but they don't have an answer for it or a fix. The truck now has 23,000 mi. and the brakes have a shudder, I think the rotors are warped. I don't understand why this could be? because I've never abused the brakes.
5000	At about 5,000 mi. I began having this cuious problem with the throttle at highway speeds. When I slightly press the throttle I don't get any reaction, and then all of a sudden it kicks in. It's about a second to a second and a half span of no response.

3800	At about 3800 miles, tranny started leaking. took to local dodge dealer and they replaced rear seal. Halfway home from dealer, tranny started leaking again. Took back to dealer next day and they said the yoke was damaged and that's what damaged the seal. They ordered a yoke and seal this time. Took about a week to get parts, but since they entered my truck into their database wrong got wrong part. In process of tearing into tranny to replace yoke(before they realized it was wrong part) noticed all clutches were burnt up from driving without fluid. Finally decided to replace whole tranny, and has been running good since.
