Consumer Description
I LIVE IN NORTHERN MINNESOTA. THE AIR SUSPENSION BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS THE FIRST WINTER I OWNED THE TRUCK. THE SUSPENSION WOULD NOT OPERATE PROPERLY DURING NEGATIVE TEMPERATURES. I BROUGHT IT IN TO GET SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES, AND I WAS TOLD IT IS NORMAL DURING NEGATIVE TEMPERATURES. THIS PAST WINTER, THE 40 AMP FUSE FOR THE SUSPENSION STARTED BLOWING. IT HAS NOW BLOWN THREE TIMES THIS WINTER, AND THE LAST TWO TIMES AS BARELY BEEN BELOW FREEZING. IT HAS BLOWN TWICE IN THE LAST 24 HOURS. WHEN THE FUSE BLOWS, THE TRUCK, DANGEROUSLY, LOWERS TO THE STOPS. IT DOES NOT HANDLE PROPERLY OR SAFELY UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.
