IT ALL BEGAN WITH A "BUMP" IN THE TRANSMISSION WHEN THE AC WAS ON. SOON AFTER THAT STARTEDTRANSMISSION WOULD LOCK INTO "LIMP HOME" MODE BETWEN 30 AND 35 MPH. IT KICKED INTO LIMP HOME MODE ON THE HIGHWAY, WHILE I WAS DRIVING 65 AND PUT MY FAMILY IN JEAPORDY. I PARKED IN IN THE DRIVEWAY AND LEFT IT THERE FOR 2 MONTHS. WHEN I DECIDED TO TRY IT AGAIN TO GET IT TO A MECHANIC, IT WOULDN'T EVEN GO IN REVERSE. BROUGHT IT TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN THE AREA TO BE REPAIRED AT THE TUNE OF $2,000 FOR AN OVERHAUL.
