Many Dodge Ram drivers face common issues with their Aisin transmissions. While there are instances of smooth shifting, it is typically inconsistent. The transmission often feels worn and produces jerky movements. Sudden and jarring shifts detract from the driving experience for many owners. These problems can lead to rough engine performance and continued shaking or grinding while driving. Additionally, there is a recurring problem of the converter unlocking and locking frequently. Although the Aisin transmission can be dependable, it is generally not a good match for Dodge Ram vehicles. A prevailing view is that Dodge Ram models equipped with an Aisin transmission suffer from inadequate programming.

I've had two failures with my Aisen transmission in less than a year. Right now, I'm stranded out of town and have to leave my trailer behind to take the truck back to the dealership. Then I'll have to come back with my old Dodge to retrieve the trailer. 😡

Switching from first to second gear in my truck can be a bit jerky at times, requiring me to carefully use the throttle to get through the gears smoothly. I don't believe I should have to deal with this issue in a truck that costs over 80 thousand dollars and has less than 35,000 miles on it.

My 2020 Ram 3500 broke down with 60,000 miles on it in remote West Texas, 500 miles away from home. We had to crawl at 5 miles per hour for 10 miles until we reached a town to call for a tow. It was a hassle having to deal with arranging accommodations and a way back for both us and our trailer. Although it's covered under warranty, it has been quite troublesome.

I drive a 2022 3500 truck with 2117 kilometers on it, and the Aisin transmission failed. I've been waiting a year and a half to get my truck back. It's a work vehicle that hasn't seen much use. The service for warranty repair has been terribly slow and disappointing.
