I do.

Sharing my experience with my Dodge truck. Last I checked, this was a Dodge truck forum.

Thats not what you said. You called me a "troll". A troll is someone who fabricates information (lies) to get attention.

I was expecting to open a dialog, in respect to what I think of my truck right now. Im not/didnt ask what I should do, because I dont need others advice as WHAT to do, rather possibly get some information that may help...what action I take, will be my decision.

No thank you....I might keep the truck, I dont know, but if I do, and have more issues, you better bet Im going to post them here.

Im not crying about anything pal. And I dont believe that "everyone else on the planet" thinks that having all these mechanical problem in the short time/millage I have had, is normal or acceptable.

 

Weed, this has been addressed already. Its not about me doing the work or not. I only post the prices from professional shops and dealers (not all quotes were from dealers) to make a reference to the questionable engineering.

And I would never assume everybody is mechanically inclined, or could "teach themselves" to replace a heater core in a Dodge truck. I know that most of us here are at least, minimally mechanically capable, but I can guarantee my wife would NEVER consider/attempt to change the plugs in my truck, or replace the heater core.

Regards.

 

Is this a question? Im not "bit**ing" AT anybody here...Im "bit**ing" about my truck.

I just might sell it, and indeed buy a Chevy. However, if I keep it, and issues continue that I find unacceptable, you better believe Im going to post it here.

 

I understand bro and I can feel where you are coming from. I had a car once that almost made me burn it to the ground because every time i turned around something was going wrong. Some rides are just like that unfortunately. I know you know better to think one manufacture like Chevy is better than Dodge because we all know Chevy has the same issues. Some individual trucks are good and some are a headache.

 

You know Gas but it might be worth looking into an aftermarket warranty for a year or two, if the truck is going to lump all it's mechanical problems this close together it might pay. Also the best way I've seen to keep a vehicle from breaking is to keep it under warranty.

 

Thanks Rich...I never thought of that!

 

Just got curious, thought I'd post up my 2 minutes of Google results:

You can see the Chevy appears to have some issues for quite a few years running.

I'm sorry you're having the issues you are having. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone having all the issues you're having. The one that gets me the most is the airbag sensor. If it went off just after you bought it, my bet is it went on in the past and it was jimmied to make it stop. I know you believe the prior owner had no knowledge of these things, but the airbag system light is very unusual.

 

Thanks Robert.

Correct. But I do admit I knew there would be those "ones" who would choose to attack, but I can handle it...Ive got big shoulders.

I will agree, I was very surprised when Hammer banned you, especially based on what others have said, but I will never presume to dictate how Hammer does his job.

I cant agree more. Ben D (and I dont mean any disrespect) just doesnt get it. It seems to bother him so much, he has resorted to immature name calling, and grade school insults, but again...I practice being a duck...I just let it roll off my back.

I think there has been good from this thread. There has been some good dialog and interaction, but you have to wad through all the crap to see it.

I havent decided what direction Im going to go. Its almost like Im so far into it now, I cant get out. And Im not sure I even could sell it with air bag light on, HOWEVER, I have learned (because of this thread) there is a probable fix that is rather inexpensive.

Regards Robert, and thanks for the comments.

 

Not that I have to justify it, but 8 posts since Dec. '10, each one bashing the product. Nothing constructive, no other purpose for the posts. I was just not into delaying the inevitable...

 

Lets keep the thread nice and civil guys. We dont want to see it get closed for getting out of hand. We have ALL had rides that have seemed to have been more trouble than they were worth. And if one of you just happens to say otherwise, well then just keep waiting, its coming. LOL

I hate to see anyone leave a good truck but thats not to say the truck they have right now is the one for them. Until someone starting PAYING me to drive their ride, I swear NO allegiance to any of them.
