POWER TRAIN
I WAS ISSUES A RECALL NOTIFICATION THAT MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL COULD POP OUT OF PARK AND GO INTO NEUTRAL RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE NOT BEING SAFE. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY ASSURED ME THE PART WAS IN. I WENT AND AFTER 2 HOURS WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PART WAS IN. I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM. IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE I WOULD THINK THIS MIGHT BE IMPORTANT?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A 50 MPH FRONTAGE ROAD AND DECELERATING TO TURN ON A SIDE STREET, THE TRUCK STALLED SUDDENLY AT THE APEX OF THE TURN, GAVE A WARNING SOUND AND A MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN STATING "LOW OIL PRESSURE". NO OTHER LIGHTS CAME ON AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR CODE WAS STORED IN THE COMPUTER. WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED I LOST POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING AND (OBVIOUSLY) ENGINE POWER. THE ENGINE RESTARTED EASILY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN NEUTRAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, SOME AT THE SAME LOCATION OR LOCATIONS WITH SIMILAR SPEED/DECELERATION/TURNING CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO RECREATE THE STALL AND THUS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED THEM 2 TIMES AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THEM ONCE. THEY ONLY OFFERED A SERIES OF PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCES LIKE CLEANING THE INTAKE MANIFOLD.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
ELECTRICAL ISSUES HAVE BEEN PREVALENT SINCE THE DATE OF PURCHASE IN 2013. MUST BE A SHORT IN THE ENTIRE TRUCK SOMEWHERE. MY LIGHTS ON THE PASSENGER MIRROR BLINK ALL THE TIME WHILE RUNNING AND OR OPENING THE DOOR. HUBS/CV AXLES HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE 3 TIMES EACH NOW. THIS VEHICLE IN NOT USED AND ABUSED. I TAKE CARE OF IT WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE. I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHERS WHO OWN SAME YEAR MODEL AND HAVE SEEN ONLINE ON FORUMS OTHERS HAVE HAD THESE ISSUES ALSO. THIS CAUSES THE CV, HUBS, AND ROTORS/BRAKES TO BE REPLACED.
