Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS, IN THE PROCESS OF SLOWING DOWN OR AT A COMPLETE STOP THE TRUCK EXPERIENCES ENGINE SURGES. IT HAPPENS UNEXPECTEDLY AND GIVES NO WARNING. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I'VE ALMOST REAR-ENDED PEOPLE NUMEROUS TIMES DUE TO THE SURGES. IT WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAID THEY DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I'LL BE MAKING AN APPOINTMENT FOR ANOTHER SERVICE CALL WITHIN THE NEXT WEEK. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME BUT THEN A CO-WORKER SAID SHE HAD THE SAME ISSUES TO THE EXTENT THAT SHE SOLD HER CAR BACK AND BOUGHT A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MAKE & MODEL. *JB
