Chrysler 62TE Transmission Repair & Rebuilding
The 62TE is Chrysler's six-speed front-wheel-drive transaxle, used behind V6 engines in minivans, crossovers and midsize sedans. Its unusual design uses an extra underdrive compounder to produce six ratios, which gives it some failure patterns you won't see in other units. We diagnose, repair and rebuild 62TE transmissions in Glendale for drivers across the Phoenix metro.
Common applications
- Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country and Ram C/V minivans (V6)
- Dodge Journey crossover (V6)
- Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200 and Chrysler Sebring sedans (V6)
Common problems and symptoms
Solenoid, valve-body and adaptive issues are common contributors; a quick-learn and scan data are the first steps.
The transmission control system defaults to a safe gear when it sees a fault. Stored codes tell us where to look.
Often clutch wear or pressure loss, made worse by high temperatures and low fluid.
A recognised 62TE complaint that can be calibration or hydraulic related, so we test before recommending parts.
How we diagnose it
- Scan for codes and review solenoid, pressure and speed-sensor data
- Check fluid level and condition at the correct temperature
- Inspect the pan and filter for debris
- Road test with live data through all six gears
- Confirm the unit by sales code and VIN

Verified applications with their own repair pages. Where engine or trim changes the transmission, we confirm by VIN before quoting any work.
Frequently asked questions
Is the 62TE different from the 4-speed 40TE/41TE?
Yes. The 62TE adds an underdrive compounder for six speeds and was used behind V6 engines; many 4-cylinder and some earlier models used a 4-speed, so we confirm by VIN.
What is a quick-learn?
It's a procedure that resets how the transmission controller learns clutch fill and shift timing. It's done after many repairs and can improve shift quality, but it won't fix worn parts.
