I was on my way to work two days ago. The 1-2 shift was really long when first leaving my driveway. I thought its just cold. I got about 10 mins from the house crusing about 40mph and there was several bucks/surges. I look down and 3 seconds later the check engine light came on. I came to the stop light and the trans was in 7th at a stop. I went ahead and shifted to R, N, and P. Took it back to D and was still in 7th. I decided to drive it back 10 mins home and take my wifes car. While I was in my driveway I went ahead and cycled the key off completely for 30 seconds and tried again. Straight to 7th.
I called Dodge and they sent a flat bed to take it to the dealer.
The soulution:
1. Dodge said there is a new TSB on the TCM that just came out. They reflashed it.
2. Re-learned all the rpm and shift points
3. Test drove it to higway speeds and back down.
They said all is normal again and I can come get it tomorrow.
The 1-2 felt like lack of trans oil but they said its a sealed unit and all is good.
