Consumer Description

WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 5 CHILDREN ON THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK STOPPED ON HER. SHE WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT BUT ONLY DRIVE ABOUT 40MPH WHILE THE RPM'S WERE REDLINING. THE REVERSE WENT COMPLETELY OUT. SHE ENDED UP HAVING TO PUSH THE TRUCK BY HERSELF WITH ALL THE KIDS INSIDE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE TRANSMISSION IS BAD, IT'LL COST $2600 TO REPAIR. FROM READING THE FORUMS IT'S OBVIOUS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRUCK. WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE NO ONE WAS INJURED. *TR
