| Description of the problem | 2004 dodge ram 1500 slt with hemi 5. 7 engine - 61k miles. Until now i have been very happy with the truck. It is a pleasure truck and has never hauled anything. I have done eveything to maintain the truck perfectly. I had the gsr valve replaced as the check engine light came on. Ever since then the truck just quits and stalls and has left me in very dangerous condition. I am afraid to drive the truck now. When it stalls it will not start or even turn over and has to be towed - twice now in a week. After some time the truck starts and the mechanics have been unable to find anything wrong. This truck is dangerous and i am afraid to drive on any interstate. What can i do?? |
