Consumer Description

VEHICLE BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING AND I WAS TOLD BY LEITH DODGE THAT IT WAS A FAULTY FUEL PUMP WHICH WAS REPLACED. THEN THE SAME ISSUE HAS COME UP AGAIN. AFTER READING ABOUT THE PROBLEM I HAVE DISCOVERED IT IS SOMETHING KNOWN TO DODGE AT THE TIME OF MY PURCHASE WHICH THEY LIED TO ME WHEN I ASKED THEM ABOUT SAID ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS TIME IT IS A FAULTY TIPM. IN RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT DODGE HAS KNOWN THIS FOR YEARS. *TR
