Consumer Description
WENT TO TAKE OFF FROM A STOPLIGHT AND WHEN I ACCELERATED TO 1500 RPM THE EXHAUST BRAKE ENGAGED AND PREVENTED ME FROM INCREASING SPEED. I HAD TO LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND GENTLY ACCELERATE IN ORDER TO GET THE TRUCK MOVING. ONCE GOING, ANYTIME I TRIED TO INCREASE SPEED, THE EXHAUST BRAKE WOULD ENGAGE AND SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE, AND THEN RESTART. THIS SEEMED TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM.. IT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE BUT IT WAS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. *TR
