62 Transmission noise: when shifting/stopping, buzzng/ratcheting

Bob Meyer wrote about the Stratus (Cirrus/Breeze)'s automatic transmission
making a buzzing/ratcheting noise when shifting gears or pulling to a stop.

a bad pump, "But if what you're hearing is only during shifting from park
into reverse or drive or coming to a stop, then the dealer is probably
telling you the truth."
