Hello Rudybadvan.
My question for you is that you mention to tell the technican to replace all the phasers. are you meaning both the electrical and mechanical phasers? or just the electrical, or just the mechanical ones? we've replaced the electrical phasers and still have the same problem.
Thanks

Hello. Just got my 2011 T&C. I have noticed the same thing. I know that in ECON mode the transmissions is designed to skip gears in order to conserve gas. That is probably the reason, but I'm not a fan. Let me know what your dealer told you. Thanks!

hello, im not sure which phasers they replaced. my engine light came on 3 different times, each time they did some type of repair to the engine. i know that on at least one occasion they told me that they had to replace all of the phasers because they were faulty. i suggest to you to keep complaining about all of the issues with your van until they fix it properly(if thats possible)

I have had my 2010 T&C in three times already. First they tried computer reflash which helped for a few of the gear changes but did not take care of all. The last time they replaced seals in the transmission and now all gears change smoothly except for second. It still has the shudder. The guys at the dealearship tell me they don't have a complete fix for the problem. We have less than 26000 miles on it. Way to go Chrysler!!!! Makes me mad everytime I drive it!! I think we are done with Chrsyler.

The problem exist with the 2010 too. I have had mine in three times in the last month. They tried the computer reflash which helped but never completely fixed the problem. Two weeks ago they replaced seals in the transmission. All gears now change smoothly except for second. I am not impressed at all with Chrysler. This is not a problem we should be experiencing. Someone goofed at Chrysler and we are now paying for the goof!!

sorry to hear that you have a lemon also. hears my advise, find a lemon law lawyer and tell him about all of the problems that you are having with your van. 3 repairs for the same problem qualifies your car as a LEMON. i sued crysler, they settled out of court. i should be receiving notice any day now on when to return my LEMON to the dealership for a re-purchase. yes they are giving me ALL of my money back less .10cent per mile from the first time that i started having problems. the process takes some time, however my nightmare will be over in a matter of days. good luck
