I guess my issue is when someone comes out and says the truck is a disappointment and if they would have known before hand they would've went with brand "x" when the problem is a squeak or something else minor that can be easily taken care of.

Agreed with above statement that it's a first year new model. We all should've known there were gonna be some gremlins to work out.
To this point my truck has been worth every penny. Hope I can say that in 10yrs!

[QUOTE=Ironsides;1998513]Here's you, complaining about the same damn problem, 11 times, in 11 different threads. These came about from a quick search, I'm sure your nonsense spreads a lot farther than these posts.



Not complaining about the truck complaining about paying for the dealerships to train on my vehicle. I had to complain 11 times to keep up to the complaints everyone else is putting in, but I only have the few.
Ya I know I complained about that, its a matter of money that I should not have to pay not a problem with the truck like a loose screw. I complained also about the dealer not fixing my running board, had to do it myself.

I too have dealt with them, all day to starscan a rear cam, only for them to tell me it was a problem with the part, went home and diagnosed/fixed in 15 minutes.

And yes this is a great site for exchange of problems and ideas, but whining about the chrome accented interior and the like, well don't buy the truck or paint it. Check my threads no whinning about the truck, maybe service related or price of a part, love my truck as I did my last 2 3rd gens that I own, and they had a few problems but minor, comes with the territory of owning a machine.
Ditto love my truck hate the dealerships. Said that twice now for those counting.

I gotta agree, when you read a thread that goes something like, " My rear window is leaking, if I had known this before I bought the truck I would have bought a Ford." Come on.... I did a quick search on Ford, Chevy, Toyota and Titan forums and ALL of them had people complaining about leaking rear windows.

If it has **** or tires, you are going to have problems with it. End of story....

So as far as this thread about complaining, here we are complaining about complaining which has nothing to do with our trucks... Ironic...

I don't blame you especially if your truck is made in Mexico. Nothing personal it is just common knowledge that Europeon's (supposedly) build the best quality, then Canadians(yay), then US(of course) Kazitstan(spellcheck) then Mexico....LOL just kidding.I think it doesn't matter where it's built. If you have a serious problem I say take it in but if 6 months down the road you door squeaks when you open it well then you have a 2 fold problem whereever you go to get your oil changed should be lubing all your door and hood and tailgate hinges. and if they aren't you should be.
Worse thing to do to get ****ty service at the dealer is have a list with 10 things on it and only 3 matter, you will not be on the top of their list and don't plan on waiting for it that day you will be upset, first in last out. They hate that and I don't blame them because unless you are 100 miles from the closest dealer then you could bring it in as things happen, I brought a list once like that and they refused to fix a few things on my list because I knew about them and did not bring it in as soon as I knew about it or in a timely fashion as to not cause a more expensive repair. Makes sense when they told me that. So now if it is other than a loose screw in something that doesn't matter if it fell out or a squeak fixed with a shot of oil I take it in as needed. Now as needed for me is warranty, oil changes and if I do something that needs to be star scanned or the latest way to ensure they get some business.
