Replying to: morpar1dude (Sep 11, 2009 9:45 am) The TSB #18-031-07 is a reprogramming/software mod of both the TCM (transmission control module) and the PCM(power control module). It makes the changes to drivability and the way the engine responds. The dealer can look it up on the Chrysler Service net or check your VIN number to see if it's been done or if indeed your car falls within the required VIN or manufactured time frame. I personally printed it out and went to my dealer and told him that Iwas experiencing the problems described in the criteria section.
