“Engine head gasket failed while driving up hill with trailer. Engine was replaced with no reason given for failure.

This is the second time in the history of this vehicle in which the truck has accelerated uncontrollably for fuel injection related reasons. Another 170 miles later the fuel injection pump failed again and I was told it was replaced with a remanufactured pump which, in fact, did not come with the 12month/12,000 mile warranty I was told it came with 4 days earlier. …”
