I have taken the 2005 Dodge Dakota 4X4 back to the Dealer for repair on July 24, 2006. Service Technician stated that the problem could not be duplicated. No repairs were made to the vehicle.
1) Buzzing noise when shifting into Drive also in Reverse. 2) Transmission slips in Drive and Reverse when going up a steep incline. The Transmission is not downshifting to a lower gear when driving up a hill, have to put Transmission in 2nd gear to drive up a steep hill. 3) Truck has to come almost to a complete stop before Transmission downshifts into 1st gear. 4) After the truck has been driven for a while, there is a metallic "clanking" noise coming from the Transmission shifting gears. 5) The front axles (driveshafts) are making a grinding noise when executing a sharp turn with the steering wheel. 6) When in Park with the truck turned off there is a lot of play in the steering wheel, it will not lock into place when the key is removed.
