Consumer Description

DURING FAILURE ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS FLASH THE TRANSMISSION GOES HAYWIRE AND THE TACHOMETER GOES HAYWIRE. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN AT THREE DIFFERENT SHOPS, WE HAVE CHANGED OUT THE TRANSMISSION RELAY, THE HEADLIGHT LAMP, SERVICED THE TRANSMISISON AND STILL CANNOT FIND THE CAUSE. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE REPLACE A RADIO WHICH HAS SHORTED OUT AND THE FUEL INDICATOR DOESN'T WORK. BOTH OF WHICH FAILED BEFORE THE TRUCK WAS THREE YEARS OLD, UNFORTUNEATELY JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. *AK
