Consumer Description

TRUCK WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY WITH 43K MILES WHEN I BROUGHT MY TRUCK IN FOR EMISSIONS RECALL V08. THE NEW SOFTWARE HAS MADE MY TRUCK DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WHEN COLD, AND EVEN AFTER THE TRUCK HAS BEEN SITTING FOR AN HOUR. UNTIL FULLY AT OPERATING TEMP THERE IS A DANGEROUS THROTTLE LAG AND LOSS OF POWER WHICH AFFECTS ME WHEN I PULL INTO TRAFFIC AND ALSO WHILE TOWING MY TRAVEL TRAILER. THE TRUCK DOES NOT ACCELERATE, TRAVELING AT 2-5MPH WITH THE THROTTLE FLOORED CAUSING REAR ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO HAVE TO APPLY THE BRAKES. WHILE TOWING I CANT ACCELERATE MAKING MERGING INTO TRAFFIC UNSAFE. RETURNED IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY VERIFIED ALL OF THE SYMPTOMS AND DID NOTHING BECAUSE FCA SAID THAT'S HOW IT RUNS NOW...BLAME THE EPA.
