This is a red carpet contract. Bought the pickup in Oct.99. Started having trouble with the clutch in Jan.2000, sent it in to check the clutch and they said nothing wrong. Sent I back because engine light stayed on and the problem with clutch was still there. They changed a sensor and again said nothing wrong with clutch. I didn't get it out of the lot before the clutch went completely out. This time they replaced the clutch.they said it was a manufactor default in Nov.2000 was hit broadsided on passenger side, behide door, and the whole backend was replaced. Put 2 new tiares on back and extensive work done on backend. Assumed tires were balanced and front and back aligned. I had it back again July 22,2001. The clutch is acting up again, the steering is all wrong and it keeps dying on me. The back of the truck feels like it is trying to pass the front end. The front end shakes relly bad at 60mph, and when I try to speed up the motor bogs down. I took it back for all this and once again nothing is wrong except my inagination, and the wheels need to be balanced and the faront end needs re-alignment. I was told that the reason it wouldn't speed up when given gas was because of the carpet under the gas peddal, so they removed it. The clutch is still not engaging correctly and they still say there is nothing wrong with it. My warrantuy is out at 36000 miles and I want this truck fixed now not next year. Because I am a woman they think that I am stupid but I have news for them. There is something wrong with the truck and if I'd have known that this would be happening I would never have accepted the truck after the accident. The assured me that everything was like brandnew, but they lied and now they won't correct anything. I do hope that you will check into this, as I have 2 small children who travel in this truck and if anything happens to them because of these problems, I will have no other option that to hire an attorney and go to court.

Problem with clutch, dies when trying to enter traffic, hard to steer when turning and strange noise coming from front of truck. Had it back numerous occations and its been blamed on carpet under gas peddal to my imagination.

Consumer is having problems with clutch. Clutch pedal feels sluggish, and someitmes it slips. Other times, clutch won't come back all the way. Consumer took vehicle into dealership, and they did nothing for consumer. After a short time, consumer took vehicle into dealership for a second time, and dealer informed consumer that warranty expired.
