Description of the problem | My stake-bed truck's axle broke. The truck had under 12,000. It was repaired in odessa, tx and the service manager tells me the conversions on the truck are too much for the truck. That is why the axle broke. He stated that my husband and i are in serious danger of bodily injury and or death. Now the brakes had to be repaired and i was again told by an employee of i-10 toyota that the truck is too heavy for the weight it's carrying. Of course he said that was only his opinion. |
