Included in the price of the vehicle is a warranty.

The truck is a 4.7 with a 5spd auto. It only slips after it has set for more than 5 + hours hot or cold out side. It only slips going into drive.It has 28,000 miles on it. The dealer changed the trans filters and oil at 25,000.

Common complaint with the 45RFE and 5-45RFE trans. It's caused by auto trans fluid drainback into the pan. Culprit is fluid cooler return filter anti-drainback valve not sealing. Yes, it's one of the filters the dealer changed.
There's a workaround if you don't feel like making the dealer replace the filter with a new one.
When you start your truck after it's been sitting for a while, let it idle for about 10 to 15 seconds so the tranny fluid pump can build up some pressure, before you try to drive away.

2000 4.7 45rfe. same thing here, too. common problem. When idling at first startup, put transmission in neutral for 10 seconds to fill up torque converter. I wonder if they used an old filter when changed. They came out with a revised filter, supposed to have cured the problem. Here's the TSB... http://dodgeram.info/tsb/2005/21-015-05.htm
(well it says 2000-2004 Dakota, but also 2005 Ram- but this is what you have. And what were talking about.)

I have the same issue. Dealer says they can't find anything first time. They changed the filter. Second time I took it in for slipping they said they changed the pump. It still slips ever once in awhile. Thrid time they say nothing is wrong. Now I am just waiting for the transmission to burn up so I can invoke the lemon law.

Here is a up date on my trans problem. Left it over night.It finally slipped for them they said.They said they ordered these parts.The parts are on a 2wk back order.
converter 21046004
pump kit 21129009
body tran 21139004
The good thing is my factory power train is warranted for 70 thousand miles, The bad thing it is a pain in the butt to have to have my new truck ripped apart.
I will try for a lemon if they keep me coming back for the same thing. I love this truck, my plan is to buy it after lease is up.
