MY DODGE MAGNUM KEEPS GOING INTO LIMP MODE. LIMITS TO 35 MPH AND WILL SLOW YOU TO 35 QUICKLY. I TOOK IT IN TO A DODGE DEALER AND THEY PREFORMED A TCM UPDATE AND ALLOWED ME TO TAKE THE CAR I MADE IT 5 MILES BEFORE GOING INTO LIMP MODE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY CLEARED THE CODE AND I COULD DRIVE IT FOR A WHILE BEFORE IT WOULD GO IN LIMP MODE. ( SO I COULD DRIVE OFF AND GET IN TRAFFIC ON OPEN ROAD GO IN LIMP MODE AND POSSIBLY CRASH OR BE CRASHED INTO GOING 35 MPH ON A 65MPH INTERSTATE) NOT SAFE IN MY BOOKS. THIS IS MY 4TH DODGE AND 3RD TIME I HAVE HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM. 05 MAGNUM, 07 MAGNUM. 05 RAM 1500. THERE IS FORMS WHERE THIS HAPPENS OFTEN. I THINK DODGE SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM AND NOT CHARGE ME EVERYTIME THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT IT. 70$ JUST TO TELL ME IT'S IN LIMP MODE WHEN I ALREADY KNEW THAT AND KNEW WHAT CODE WAS TRIPPED FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
