Consumer Description

I WAS PULLING INTO THE GARAGE; AS I BEGAN TO BRAKE TO BRING THE TRUCK TO A HALT, THE ENGINE RACED AND THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES STARTED GOING OFF AS I STOOD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE TRUCK PROBABLY WOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH THE BACK OF THE GARAGE HAD I NOT THROWN THE GEAR SELECTOR INTO NEUTRAL. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I'VE HAD THIS EXPERIENCE, BUT IT'S THE FIRST TIME I HAD OTHERS IN IT WITH ME AND FIRST TIME I WAS WORRIED ABOUT GETTING THE VEHICLE STOPPED BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED. I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER IF THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE APPROPRIATE COURSE OF ACTION IS. THE PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENS ONCE IN A WHILE, SO IT SEEMS LIKE TAKING IT TO THE DEALER WOULDN'T PRODUCE ANY RESULTS. *TR
