Consumer Description

COOLANT AND TRANSMISSION FLUID MIXED AND CAUSED THE CAR TO SHAKE AND NOT ACCELERATE. THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM AND BY THE TIME IT HAPPENED AT 79K MILES THE DEALER WOULD ONLY COVER HALF. I HAD TO PAY $2500 FOR A REPAIR THAT THEY NEW WAS DEFECTED. I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND THE CAR STALLED AND I HAD TO PUT FLASHERS ON TO KEEP CARS FROM HITTING ME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE WHO STILL OWNS THIS TRUCK. I NOW HAVE ANOTHER $750 BILL TO REPAIR THE FUEL SENDING UNIT THAT WENT OUT AFTER RECALL MILEAGE EXPIRED. THEY KNOW IT'S A PROBLEM AND SHOULD FIX IT WHEN IT HAPPENS.
