Accumulator plate failure which my diesel shop said is quite common and the internet agrees. I could still drive it but not higher than 3rd gear so I was able to limp back home and then to the shop. Ruined the valve body too. $2500 to fix with upgraded parts so not all that expensive, but any problem that renders the truck unusable is a big deal in my book. Truck is completely stock.

The 6.4 Hemi has the ZF 8 speed transmission that looks to be bulletproof. I think its fair to say that every Chrysler designed transmission has been problematic and the 68RFE needs to be put out to the pasture.
