2022 Ram 2500 Limited RFE 6 speed transmission. Right at 10k miles, when accelerating normally from 1st to 2nd there is a definite lurch in truck and smaller one going from 2nd to 3rd. Nothing on downshifting.
Dealer attempted computer reboot, no avail. currently a star (?) ticket with corporate for engineering support. looking to see if others are having comparable issues and resolutions. Service advisor little help but wasn't surprised by issue.
Been at dealer for a week now and no solid resolution. any help on how to address would be appreciated.
 
I haven’t read any posts with similar issues, it may be tough to track down without a check engine light on. Keep us updated on any resolutions for any future members with a similar issue!
 
feedback from dealer. trans pan dropped, trans oil discolored/aerated, metal in oil. only towing was 6500 lb. travel trailer on the east coast, between 6500-9000 miles. no further guidance from corporate.
been at dealer since 11/9/22.
 
Ugh, I was wondering if that was normal, this is my first diesel. My almost feels like a surge between shifts, couple of hard shifts. No issues besides that.

Man that’s terrible, at least it will fall under the 3/36k warranty. Most likely a manufacturing glitch, the rfe isn’t really that bad if left in stock form.
 
Man that sucks. If there is metal in the oil I don't know why they're dragging their feet - put a new transmission in it

so far haven't made any non-stock add's to the truck.
still on hold for now, thinking corporate is slow playing until the ZA3 recall resolution is determined and implemented.
