Have fuel pressure checked by dodge Or a technician you know and trust. It is Either running out of fuel or ECM is going into limp mode. Electronic throttle motor is failing , computer senses failure to respond normally , so it disallows complete throttle control. Check with dodge about TSB concerning this, it could a common problem that dodge is currently seeking to answer. PCM re-flash also could repair this situation

No it's not your tranny , it's the pvc valve .it gets oil and build up and the bearing ball gets stuck causing the car to choke . $40 bucks . Especially if it hasn't been swapt out yet.
