A855 - 5 Speed
I have no idea how many have been built/delivered.
You hit the nail on the head though, a significant number are defective, and they all appear to pop out of 4th.
If you received one without that issue, you praise them, one with that issue you're sol.
Consider the reality here; under warranty, still the same issue, no reply whatsoever from multiple people at GFI for months or Passon, and no one has the wherewithal or the balls to call the customer and get this resolved asap.
They agreed to send me a new trans, but once 9 trans were sent for testing for the same issue and passed, shipped and tested all within a week (my butt they were) they wanted to send me a new cover with a heavier spring.
When I said, no thank you, for multiple reasons, their story changed to your new trans didn't pass testing, we have no idea why, but it's here to get fixed again.
If the transmission that was supposed to change the Mopar world had your name on it, what would you do?
Call the customer asap, refund if requested, get the word out there is an issue, be proactive?
Or keep your mouth shut, keep the $, keep selling trans, take investor's $, deny you remember customers (as if that ever matters), end all communications when you've spent too much time and $ to address a problem, run out the warranty clock in silence?
I recall when Christine told me, after I questioned the discussions she mentioned, they've had multiple meetings on me and my trans, trying to figure out what's wrong with it.
Now I'm thinking she inadvertently spilled the beans, and based on her role, any meeting she would be part of with multiple company people would more likely be about how to cut costs on this issue and end it asap.
If I'm wrong, I'll never know, she doesn't call me back anymore.
This is wrong on so many levels.
John is my only hope.
