Consumer Description

THE SPEEDOMETER WILL START TO JUMP FROM YOUR CURRENT RATE OF SPEED TO ANYTHING BELOW THAT. IT STARTED ON SUNDAY LATE AFTER NOON ON SEP. 15, 2008. THEN THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN WHEN IN USE. BOTH HAVE CONTINUED TO HAPPEN SINCE THEN, ACCEPT NOW THE TRUCK IS NOT GETTING VERY GOOD GAS MILEAGE, THE GAUGES STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ON. THE TRUCK IS AT THE DEALERSHIP AS I TYPE THIS BEING LOOKED INTO. THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM FROM WHAT I CAN SEE WHEN I DRIVE IT. SOMETHING ELECTRICAL FOR SURE, AND POSSIBLY ELSEWHERE INTERNALLY. I AM CONCERNED TO HAVE MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK WITH ME AT TIMES FROM THE WAY THE TRUCK DRIVES. ANOTHER CONCERN IS THE WARRANTY WILL BE UP IN A FEW THOUSAND MILES AND I AM CONCERNED THAT WHATEVER THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM MAY BE, THEY COULD TRY TO SUGAR COAT IT SO IT LAST A COUPLE THOUSAND MILES, THEN THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. I JUST WANT IT FIXED AND SAFE FOR MY FAMILY. *TR
