Problem overview

Some Chrysler LHS owners report experiencing transmission issues, including failure to shift into high gear, which can sometimes be resolved by restarting the engine. This problem may also present as the transmission remaining in a "limp gear," and restarting the vehicle is often a common method to reset the system and potentially clear temporary malfunctions. Additionally, some drivers have noted hard shifting into 2nd gear, particularly on inclines, which could be linked to these transmission problems. It is also advised to check the transmission fluid level, as low fluid levels can contribute to shifting difficulties.
