Intrepid 3.3L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 160,000 miles

It would not shift any higher than 3rd gear if the engine was cold when you started driving. I tried to let off the gas a little, go faster, everything. It goes up to about 6000 rpm and still won't shift. The only temporary fix I found was to restart my car while I was at a stoplight after driving it for a while.

Intrepid

Some days would start up and would not act up until drove to a stop, then would drive off a would not shift out of first, other times would downshift hard when slowing down and would not get back in high gear, this lasted for 2 months and engine light came on but codes would not detect problem. One Chrysler dealer took out my remote starter and blamed problem on that, Wrong , got off their lot and problem still there. One morning start car and engine light was on, so here we go again but I accidentally hit the key in the ignition and the light came off, so I shut it off and restarted several times putting pressure at different angles on the key and lo and behold at certain angles light would come on, hence I ordered a new ignition switch and problem, solved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
