Consumer Description

FCA REQUIRED V08 RECALL WAS COMPLETED AND THEIR AEM INSTALLED TO THE PCM/TCM. I PICKED MY TRUCK UP AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED IT WAS DOWN ON POWER. SINCE I HAVE LOST 4-5MPG AVERAGE OVER WHAT I WAS GETTING BEFORE THE AEM WAS INSTALLED. THE TRUCK IS OVERALL DOWN ON POWER SINCE THE AEM WAS INSTALLED. AS WELL THE TRUCK IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE UNTIL THE COOLANT TEMP REACHES AT LEAST 150 DEGREES F. THE TRUCK HAS NO POWER WHEN THE ENGINE IS BELOW 150F AND CAN'T GET OUT OF ITS OWN WAY AND LEAVES ME VULNERABLE TO A COLLISION DUE TO TURBO LAG AND LACK OF POWER. IF I PULL INTO TRAFFIC TO MERGE OR CROSS AN INTERSECTION MY FEAR IS I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY ENOUGH OR AVOID AN ACCIDENT SHOULD I NEED TO. I CANNOT ALLOW MY WIFE TO DRIVE THE TRUCK ANY LONGER DUE TO THE DANGERS AND LACK OF POWER.
