When drive over 60mph I smell burn from front hood. I took to Dodge dealership. They said oil leaking so paid $950 , 3 weeks later car broke down like can't go over 30mph, Aqcell won't go up , I took to dealership again , he said transmission I paid $4600( October) it used transmission. After change transmission drive was uncomfortable, not smoothly like before. I took dealership he said It because differen transmission, so need takes a while to get use to it.
I was informed this vehicle has been recalled for a transmission (recall reference s44) on 06/24/2016 and it has required a transmission replacement, costing $4k in july 19, 2019. On june 20, 2020, while driving on a highway, the vehicle suddenly made a loud revving sound, RPM increased nearly to max, acceleration became inoperable, and caused active traffic delays - similar to what had occurred a year before when the transmission was replaced.
