Consumer Description

ENGINE,6.0 DIESEL WAS LOOSING WATER. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE HEAD GASKETS WERE BLOWN AND THAT THE HEAD BOLTS WERE SOFT AND HAD STRETCHED. THIS IS A KNOWN FAULT WITH THIS ENGINE ACCORDING TO THE DEALER. IF IT IS A KNOWN FAULT, WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL TO FIX THIS. I HAVE NEVER KNOWN AN ENGINE TO HAVE BLOWN HEAD GASKETS AT 104,551 MILES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS SERVICE BULLETINS ON THIS PROBLEM. *TR
