Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND I STARTED TO HEAR A LOUD NOISE AND THE TRUCK DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT. SO I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY REAR END WAS MESSED UP. I HAD TO REPLACE THE PINION BEARINGS, REAR WHEEL SEALS AND ALL THE BEARINGS IN THE REAR END. THEN AFTER ALL THAT WAS FINALLY FIXED I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AND I START TO HEAR THE SAME NOISE AGAIN SO YET AGAIN I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND YET AGIAN THEY TELL ME THAT THE REAR END IS MESSED UP. SO I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT MY TRUCK WAS UNDER RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM . MY ENTIRE REAR END IS MESSED UP BECAUSE OF THIS AND I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO HAVE IT FIXED BECAUSE THE MECHANICS HAD NO IDEA THAT IT WAS UNDER RECALL.
