“Hit a deer with my truck. Fuel pump runs all the time. Had truck tested. Was purl pump relay bypass kit. Other models are recalled for this same reason. Also transmission is stuck in 4th gear. Tested that too. It's the lr solenoid in the com. None of this issues was wrong before hitting the deer. I feel they should be recalled.”
