“I bought this vehicle used at around 105,000 miles. I have since spent almost $22,000 on repairing of the diesel exhaust system.. my vehicle is actually in the shop now it’s been in the shop since middle of October on and off as they cannot effectively diagnose the problem. Actually they can diagnose the problem. They just can’t fix the problem. I have all my receipts, but they are in the truck currently and the truck is currently at the dealership here in Imlay city Michigan. This issue has been going on for the last two years at around a total cost to me of $20,000.”
