| Description of the problem | I am going to give you a view of what has happened with this truck in the 2 months that i have owned this new truck. The day after i bought the truck i took it back for a vibration in the breaks and a vibration in the wheels at 30 and 75 well as i am sure all of you know the vibration in the wheels at those speeds was the tires are out of round and well the breaks well we are still on that one i also had a vibration in the rear end. Well they told me that they had to get new tires and that the rear end was bad. So now that they have replaced the rear end and replaced the tires and rebuilt the break system that still does not work, and now the window falls off track and i smell something burning in the truck like plastic also let me add that the keypad does not work. Now remember that this truck in two (2) months old i bought it on august 23 2004 and it is now november 9, 2004. So what do you think that i should do??? I do appreciate all the input .*ak |
