My 2017 dodge charger is experiencing "hard shifting" when i get in the vehicle and start driving it. i just got it back from the dealer yesterday (the second time i dropped it off) and they say they experienced the problem but because there were no codes, they are referring the problem back to dodge. they applied computer updates to the pcm and tcm on the first trip and that did not correct the problem. this has been going on for the last couple of months. the car only has 6,700 miles on it.
