Default transmission slipping

hello i have 3 years on a transmission rebuild and now its starting to slip out of gear when driving. it does it mostly when im making a left turn really weird and when coming to a stop it jumps around and sometimes stalls any thoughts fluid is full. when it was rebuilt they put a new pump in it a new converter, clutch drum, pressur transducer, solenoid , governor solenoid and sun gear.

info 1998 dodge 1500 automatic 318 engine 4x4

Default Trans slips turning left

My 2001 dodge does the same thing slips turning left. I found this on another site.

i just had that same problem solved at the dealership...they replaced a sensor and a transductor located inside the transmission valve body...or somewhere in there. But the problem is gone, and i think mine had the problem since it came out of the factory, because shifts much better than when i got it new.

hope this helps. I am going to the dealership next week.

Contact the transmission shop that did the work. They will know what this issue is and maybe give you a discount on correcting the problem.
