NHTSA Complaint #754562 — 1992 DODGE PICKUP

WHEN I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK I PUT $4000.00 CASH DOWN ON IT AND BECAUSE THERE IS CURRENTLY NO LEMON LAW IN IDAHO I WAS STUCK. THE TRUCK NOW RUNS PRETTY WELL. IAW THE CUMMINS FACTORY REPAIR MANUAL THE TIMING GEAR HOUSING BOLTS ARE TO BE LOCK TIGHTED AND THEN TORQUED TO SPECS, ONLY TWO WERE LOCKTIGHTED. THE ANTI LOCK AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ON SINCE MY INITIAL PURCHASE AND THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES HAVE NOT BEEN FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE DAY PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE OF THIS TRUCK LOT OF CARS WORKED ON THE BRAKES BOTH FRONT AND REARS. I HAD WENT IN AND TOLD THEM OF THE PROBLEM AND RON THOMAS STATED THAT BECAUSE OF THE IDAHO LEMON LAW THAT IT WAS TOO BAD THAT I WAS STUCK WITH IT. I FEEL THAT IT IS THE LACK OF LAWS TO PROTECT THE CONSUMERS AGAINST CAR DEALERS SUCH AS THIS. *AK
