Example complaints
Electrical system: “Transmission will not shift into first gear when putting in drive. Feels like it's starting off in third gear or something. Works if you put it in first gear, or second, just not drive. It happened all at once for no reason. Also air conditioning only works when moving. If you stop it doesn't work. I have had the freon checked and is okay. And now just today, it died for no reason. I stopped at the bank to make an overnight deposit, when back to my truck, and turned the key and nothing. Just like that. I had to walk at least a 1/2 mile to the nearest phone to have my son come get me. …”
