  WHEELS, TIRES

  THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WILL NOT GO OFF AND KEEPS BLINKING "LOW TIRE PRESSURE. I HAVE MADE SEVEN ATTEMPTS TO GET THIS RESOLVED. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK FROM LAST NIGHT THAT THERE IS NO MORE HE CAN DO. THEY OVER INFLATED THE TIRES TO 80 PSI TO MAKE THE SENSOR GO OFF BUT THE TIRES ARE ONLY RATED FOR 65PSI MAX. THIS OVER INFLATION HAD VOIDED THE TIRE WARRANTY FROM THE TIRE MANUFACTURER. THIS COULD ALSO RESULT IN A TIRE BLOW OUT AND ACCIDENT WHICH COULD CAUSE DEATH TO ME, MY FAMILY OR PASSENGERS. I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED BEFORE ANYONE GETS HUT OR KILLED. *TR

  VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL

  WHEN STARTING TO LEAVE A STOP SIGN AFTER ACCELERATING SOMEWHAT FOOT SLIPPED OFF OF ACCELERATOR. WHEN I STEPPED ON ACCELERATOR AGAIN THERE WAS A SUBSTANTIAL LAG (3 OR MORE SECONDS) UNTIL THE ACCELERATOR BEGAN TO WORK AGAIN. WHEN I REPORTED SAME TO LOCAL DEALER I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS HOW IS WAS DESIGNED TO WORK. PROBLEM AS I SEE IT: I AM PULLING OUT INTO FASTER MOVING TRAFFIC AND MY FOOT SLIPS OFF PEDAL, NOW I AM ALREADY ENGAGED IN PULLING OUT BUT MY ACCELERATOR NO LONGER WORKS, THIS CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME AND WHATEVER VEHICLE I AM IN FRONT OF. SOLUTION IS TO DECREASE SUBSTANTIALLY OR TOTALLY ELIMINATE THIS LAG.TRAFFIC. DEALER SAID THIS WAS A COMPLAINT THEY HAVE HEARD BEFORE BUT SO FAR THERE WAS NO SOLUTION. I AM DRIVING A 2500 SERIES PICKUP THAT WEIGHS OVER 7000 LBS. SO I CAN BE A SERIOUS THREAT TO SOMEONE THAT RUNS UP ON ME DUE TO THE FACT THAT I CAN NOT ACCELERATE. *TR
