Vehicle is at dealer now for final repair before tn lemon law can be implemented. Worst and current problems are front end alignment (pulls to right), front brake squealing (pads replaced twice, rotors turned once), rear end vibration at any speed and clanking sound over bumps(all 4 tires, both rear leaf spring stacks, all 4 shocks replaced. One shock had broken shaft), engine backfires & knocks at startup (dealer reprogrammed comp. W/no results except to improve power, but accel. Pedal sticks now!), trans. Slips from dead stop for few seconds about once per week, 4WD transfer case slipped in low in deep snow (replaced fluid and did reprogram. Results??), ext. Cab pop out windows replaced due to poor fit (one exploded upon removal & dealer had to repaint side of truck. New ones are no better than originals!), rear seat missing rubber mounts(dealer replaced, but now seat makes popping noise due to rear cab wall flexing!), drive shaft makes loud clanking sound when shifting from park(dealer says this normal!). problems repaired: Rear brake line loose & in harms way(missing mount replaced), steering box loose and steering column rattled and loose around any turns(box tightened and column shaft replaced), drivers side window switch sticking in down posit.(switch replaced), all door weatherstrips and drip rail molding loose (replaced all), rear license plate light broken and replaced, door lock levers fell out of both doors(replaced both).
