This truck runs great. The only problem is the Brakes they are the biggest pain I have ever had . Nobody seems to know what the problem is. The passenger side wheel gets so hot they smoke and inside you can smell the burning brake fluid. I had the dealer check it out and he said it was a bad master cyl. Okay we did that and about a month later the same thing happened again. I took it to my personal mechanic and he did some research and found that the brake fluid had burned up and the dealer never changed the fluid when they did the master cyl. We also changed the rotors and pads. The truck ran fine for about 6 months and guess what the same thing all over again. What do I have to do change the whole damn brake system..... If any of you guys or girls out there had this problem and somehow had it solved pleaseeee drop me a line..
Thanks, Marty
