Consumer Description

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHILE AT LOW SPEED (PULLING INTO AN INTERSECTION FROM A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN), THE ENGINE IDLE DROPS AND THE ENGINE STALLS. I HAVE TO BRAKE WITH MY LEFT FOOT AND KEEP THE ENGINE IDLE UP BY PRESSING ON THE GAS TO KEEP FROM STALLING. I HAVE BEEN ALMOST REAR ENDED SEVERAL TIMES AND DO NOT TRUST THE TRUCK. AFTER READING THE COMPLAINTS AND RESEARCH ON THE TRUCK, THIS HAPPENS A LOT AND IS DANGEROUS. WHEN I TALKED TO THE DEALER, THEY SAY THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS LIKE THIS AND THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO DIAGNOSE THE TRUCK (FOR $125.00) AND GO FROM THERE. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, IT SEEMS THEY WANT TO EXCHANGE PARTS AND CHARGE FOR THE SERVICE. *TR
