Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THERE IS RATTLING INSIDE OF THE STEERING COLUMN THAT STARTED A FEW MONTHS BACK. NOW MY ALTERNATOR SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY AND THE TRUCK WILL ONLY CRANK WHEN I HAVE ALL EXTRAS OFF (RADIO, AC, ETC.) I ALSO HAVE TO PUMP THE GAS FOR SOME REASON FOR IT TO TURN OVER COMPLETELY. OTHERWISE IT JUST DIES. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL LAST WEEK WHEN IT WOULDN'T TURN OVER AT ALL. MY BATTERY IS PULLING 13.9 V AND I HAVE CHECKED THE CONNECTIONS. FOR A TRUCK TO BE 3 YEARS OLD AND ALREADY NEED A NEW ALTERNATOR APPALLS ME. THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE GOING ON AND THE RATTLING IN THE STEERING COLUMN IS SOMEHOW RELATED TO ME HAVING PROBLEMS CRANKING THE TRUCK.
