| Description of the problem | My 2007 2500 4x4 diesel 6. 7 has been a headache since the beginning . It has stalled several times the check engine light comes on for a short while then goes off . But the other day i was in a tight situation, when i stepped on the accelerator hard , a car pulled in front of me i immoderately stepped on the brake , and northing was there , it wet all the way down to the floor then after a second or two it started jumping as the anti lock brakes started to work,this was a close one i couldn't of slide my wallet between my truck and the car that pulled out in front of me . This truck also has the worse ride on concrete freeway paving . It bounces in a un stable, most irritating way ,on asphalt freeway it is very smooth, until you hit a bump and it shimmy's in a un safe felling like it could loose control, i am happy with the power of the motor when its got a full load going up hill. With that exception this is the worst over priced truck i've ever owned , ill never buy dodge again. |
