Ok guys, big update!
Stopped at the dealership today to see what is going on with the truck, service advisor took me to the shop to show me what failed.
This is a transmission oil pipe. It wasn't connected correctly, someone in the factory forgot it's a 2 stage connection. Once I took it on highway it just popped out under the higher pressure and spit all the oil.
So this little simple thing destroyed the whole transmission.
Also from what I understood, RAM doesn't have enough supply of transmissions just sitting around as spares, they had to build it. That's why it takes several weeks to ship.
Talked to the technician, based on the company guidline he's supposed to be all done today. New transmission is already in. Then I want them to update software and test batteries and hope I can drive on weekend. Fingers crossed!
