Consumer was accelerating up to 45 mph speed limit when all drivetrain capability and forward motion was lost. Vehicle currently at a Dodge dealership, and they informed consumer that transmission has to be rebuilt because no transmissions were available for 1996 model. This will cost consumer $2200. Burning rubber smell was detected after the vehicle was taken for fluid change at the dealer. Belts and the tensioners were replaced but the rubber smell still cintinued. Later on, the transmission failed.
