Consumer Description

I AM A COMPANY DRIVER, GOT IN THIS TRUCK IN FEB OF 2006, CAN SMELL FUMES COMING INTO CAB, AIR COND VENTS, HAVING HEADACHES, EYES BURNING, WENT TO DOCTOR IN JUNE OF 2006, HE SAID MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS 200/110. NEVER HAVE HAD PROBLEMS BEFORE. DON'T SMOKE OR DRINK. WHEN I GET OUT OF TRUCK FOR A FEW DAYS START TO FEEL BETTER, BUT WHEN I GET BACK IN, THE SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN. I AM NOW SPITTING UP A LITTLE BIT OF FLEM. WHY ARE THE FUMES COMING INTO MY CAB, THRU THE AIR COND VENTS, HAVE TALKED TO OTHER DRIVERS WITH SAME PROBLEM. WHY AREN'T DRIVERS TOLD ABOUT THIS? THIS IS DANGEROUS. *JB
