Consumer Description

ACCELERATION WOULD OCCUR WHEN IN PARK POSITION. IT WOULD ALSO OCCUR AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, WITHOUT PRESSING THE GAS. THIS LEAD TO THE CADILLAC CONVERTER TO MALFUNCTION AND FAIL, NEXT THE WATER PUMP WENT OUT, THE O2 SENSOR, AND VARIOUS BELTS. MY TRUCK IS A 2001 DODGE DAKOTA WITH ONLY 78,000 MILES, THE REPAIRS WILL REACH 2000.00 I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT AND WAS TOLD THAT A VEHICLE WITH THESE LOW MILES SHOULD NOT OCCUR. THE CADILLAC CONVERTER IS A CA EMISSIONS ONE, WHICH IS EXPENSIVE. THIS SHOULD HAD NEVER HAPPENED, MY TRUCK IS DRIVEN 10 MILES A DAY. *TR
