Consumer Description

TOOK MY TRUCK TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP BC MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON & STARTED TO BLINK & DING. BARELY MADE IT THERE & SO THEY CHECKED IT & SAID THE ROCKER ARM NEEDS REPLACING. SO THEY ORDERED IT & SAID ITS ON BACK ORDER & THAT THERE WERE 600 AHEAD OF ME. IF IT'S SO MANY THAT NEED THIS PART, IT SHOULD BE A RECALL ON IT. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR 3 1/2 WEEKS & STILL I DON'T HAVE MY TRUCK.
