NHTSA complaint: 2003 DODGE RAM 3500 — POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
THE VEHICLE LURCHED FORWARD IN EVERY GEAR EXCEPT IN NEUTRAL WHEN DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE CLUTCH, BUT PROBLEM RECURRED. *AK THE TRANSMISSION WAS HARD TO SHIFT, THE CLUTCH CONTROL WAS DEFECTIVE DUE TO THE SLAVE CYLINDER BLEEDING BACK INTO THE MASTER CYLINDER. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LURCH UNEXPECTEDLY. *SC
