Jaybird Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) New to the forum... have a 2013 Dodge Journey SXT 3.6L and just had the "transmission kick solenoid pack" replaced now the truck goes in reverse but not in drive. Was messing around and found this strange thing out: If I turn the truck on put it in Drive, let it run for more than one minute, shut engine off, open and then close front door AND repeat this process again... The third time I turn on the engine and put the truck in Drive, it pulls right off??? Strange... drove it around subdivision and it drove fine, reversed into my driveway, fine but went to Drive- did not move? Turned engine off not sure whats wrong with my 2013 Journey? Anyone had a similar event happen or have any suggestions? Edited November 13, 2017 by Jaybird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) My suggestion would be to take it back to whoever worked on it and make them fix it. You paid for a repair that was not performed satisfactorily. Edited November 13, 2017 by jkeaton OhareFred and 2late4u 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhareFred Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Going in reverse will make it easier to get it on the flatbed to get it towed to whoever screwed it up. Opening and closing doors has NOTHING to do with your trans. This kinda sounds like some b.s. but if you really have a problem tow it back. jkeaton and 2late4u 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
