Consumer Description

TRUCK WAS PURCHASED NEW, PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 1000 MILES. TRUCK STALLS, USUALLY HAPPENS AT SLOWER SPEEDS SUCH AS WHEN YOU REMOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE GAS PETAL TO TURN. IDLE DROPS VERY QUICKLY AND THE ENGINE STALLS. SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE COME CLOSE TO HITTING SOMEONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS HARD TO STOP OR TURN WHEN YOU LOOSE POWER, YOU ALSO LOOSE THE POWER STEERING AND THE BRAKES. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY DID AN UPDATE ON MY COMPUTER. UPDATE HAS NOT STOPPED THIS FROM HAPPENING. DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME A NEW UPDATE WILL BE OUT SOON, BUT THAT WAS 5 WEEKS AGO, AND IT STILL HAS NOT HAPPENED. IN THE MEANTIME THE VEHICLE STILL STALLS OUT WHEN YOU ARE MOVING!
