Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT LESS THAN A MONTH AGO. THE FIRST WEEK 3 TIRES SENSORS ARE OUT AND NOT WORKING, THEN YESTERDAY, OCT. 20, 2020 THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WON'T GO OUT. WE CALLED THE DEALER AND WERE TOLD THAT IT WASN'T ANY PROBLEM TO KEEP DRIVING THE TRUCK. THEY TOLD US THE SOONEST THEY COULD SEE IT WAS THIS FRIDAY, OCT. 23, 2020 AND THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY LOANERS. SO HERE I AM STUCK AT HOME AFRAID TO DRIVE THE RAM TRUCK COSTING MORE THAN $70,000 BECAUSE I MIGHT RUIN THE ENGINE. THIS IS UNCALLED FOR IN A BRAND NEW VEHICLE!!*DT*JB*DT*TR
