1) BACKED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE THEN SLAMMED INTO GEAR, 2) STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION PRESSED ON THE THROTTLE VEHICLE PAUSED AND THEN SLAMMED INTO GEAR (HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES)AND HAS CONTINUED THIS BEHAVIOR INTERMITTENTLY. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES. DEALER AND CHRYSLER STATE THAT THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE VEHICLE BEING ON AN INCLINE AND IT HAS AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE AND TRANSMISSION STATE THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM AND THEY ARE NOT GOING TO FIX IT THE DEALERSHIP (ADVANTAGE CHRYSLER IN MOUNT DORA FLORIDA TOLD ME IF I DIDN'T LIKE THE RESPONSE TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE. EACH TIME IT DOES THIS IT SLAMS INTO GEAR AND PUTS STRESS ON THE U JOINTS, DRIVE SHAFT, AND REAR END NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION.
