AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH EVERYTHING ELECTRICALLY RELATED TO THE TRUCK. THE HEADLIGHTS STAY ON, I HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO GET THEM TO GO OFF. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CONSTANTLY REMAIN ON. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, DOOR LOCKS, WINDOWS, SEATS, HEAT, A/C, RADIO, DASH LIGHTS, ETC DO NOT WORK. ONCE THE TRUCK STARTS, ALL OF THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. (CHECK ENGINE, ABS, LOW WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID, VOLTAGE, LOW OIL PRESSURE, ETC) THE TRUCK IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND IS A HAZARD TO MY FAMILY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I AM HAVING A COMPLETE ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION WITH MY TRUCK. I REMOTELY STARTED IT ONE COLD MORNING, APPROXIMATELY 20 DEGREES. AFTER GOING OUTSIDE AND APPROACHING THE TRUCK I NOTICED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE ON. WHEN REMOTELY STARTING A VEHICLE ONLY THE PARKING/MARKER LIGHTS COME ON. WHEN I TRIED TO UNLOCK THE TRUCK WITH THE KEY FOB, NOTHING WORKED. I MANUALLY UNLOCKED THE DRIVERS DOOR AND OPENED IT TO FIND AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF ISSUES. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON. THE WINDOWS WERE STILL COMPLETELY FROSTED UP. I NOTICED THAT THE DEFROST WASN'T WORKING, INCLUDING THE HEATED SEATS, HEATED STEERING WHEEL, AND HEATED MIRRORS. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THERE WERE NO LIGHTS OR POWER TO THE ENTIRE RADIO CLUSTER, HEAT & A/C CONTROLS, PARKING ASSIST BUTTONS, HAZARD BUTTON, 4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROLS, ETC. THE DOORS DIDN'T HAVE POWER FOR ANY DOOR LOCKS OR WINDOWS. ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, EVERY WARNING LIGHT IMAGINABLE WAS ILLUMINATED. CHECK ENGINE, ABS, VOLTAGE, AIR BAG, PARK ASSIST, TRACTION CONTROL, LOW FUEL, LOW WASHER FLUID, SEAT BELT, LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ALL GEARS INDICATOR LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CENTER MESSAGE SCREEN WAS GOING THROUGH EVERY POSSIBLE FAULT SCENARIO. I TRIED TO TURN OFF THE TRUCK AND RESTART IT BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I EVENTUALLY HAD TO REMOVE THE BATTERY BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHTS WOULDN'T GO OFF. THE TRUCK WASN'T SAFE TO DRIVE AND WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY WHATSOEVER. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER OVER THE PHONE THAT THE TIPM IS THE ISSUE. THE TRUCK STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND IS NOW A PAPER WEIGHT IN MY DRIVEWAY. I HAVE HAD MANY OTHER ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK AS WELL THAT I WILL FILE SEPARATE COMPLAINTS ON EACH ISSUE. (TRANSMISSION SHIFT SOLENOID, STAYING IN 4TH GEAR, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR FLYING OUT OF THE TIRE WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, REAR POWER DOOR LOCKS NOT UNLOCKING/LOCKING WITH KEY FOB OR FRONT DOOR LOCK CONTROLS). *TR

POWER TRAIN
ONE DAY I TRIED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK TO THE STORE WITHOUT ANY HISTORY OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES. WHEN I PLACED THE TRUCK INTO DRIVE THE TRUCK IMMEDIATELY SHIFTED IN 4TH GEAR. I PUT IT BACK IN PARK THEN INTO DRIVE AGAIN. THIS SEEMED TO FIX THE ISSUE. A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE TRUCK FELT SLUGGISH, ALMOST LIKE I WAS PULLING A HEAVY LOAD ON A TRAILER. I NOTICED THAT THE TRUCK WAS IN 4TH GEAR AGAIN. I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I HAD ACCIDENTALLY PUT THE TRUCK INTO MANUAL, BUT I KNEW THAT I HAD NOT. SO I TRIED TO SHIFT BACK INTO DRIVE, BUT THIS DIDN'T FIX IT. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE TRUCK OFF, BACK ON AND MIRACULOUSLY NO MORE ISSUES. UNTIL I DROVE IT AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. IT WOULD SPORADICALLY SHIFT INTO 4TH GEAR, AND STAY THERE WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF RESET LIKE BEFORE. OTHER DAYS, I COULD DRIVE JUST FINE. I EVENTUALLY HAD AN INDEPENDENT TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST LOOK AT THE TRUCK. HE STATED THAT THE LOW GEAR/REVERSE TRANSMISSION SHIFT SOLENOID WAS MALFUNCTIONING. I REPLACED IT AND DIDN'T HAVE ANY OTHER TRANSMISSION ISSUES. BESIDES THE REAR DOOR LOCKS BEING INOPERABLE LIKE BEFORE, THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES STARTED THE FOLLOWING WEEK (TIPM). NOW I'M STARTING TO THINK THAT THE TIPM MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE INITIAL ISSUE WITH THE DOOR LOCKS AND TRANSMISSION. I HAVE HAD MANY OTHER ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK AS WELL THAT I WILL FILE SEPARATE COMPLAINTS ON EACH ISSUE. (TIPM ELECTRICAL ISSUES, NO POWER TO ANYTHING INSIDE OF THE TRUCK, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR FLYING OUT OF THE TIRE WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, REAR POWER DOOR LOCKS NOT UNLOCKING/LOCKING WITH KEY FOB OR FRONT DOOR LOCK CONTROLS) THIS TRUCK IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MY FAMILIES LIFE AS WELL AS MY OWN. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE REAR POWER DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK WHATSOEVER IN MY TRUCK. TRYING TO UNLOCK/LOCK THE DOORS IN MY TRUCK WITH THE KEY FOB ONLY OPERATE THE FRONT DOORS. TRYING TO UNLOCK/LOCK THE DOORS WITH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE POWER DOOR LOCK CONTROLS ONLY OPERATE THE FRONT DOORS AS WELL. THE ONLY WAY THE BACK DOORS WILL LOCK/UNLOCK IS IF IT IS DONE MANUALLY. WHEN THE DOORS ARE UNLOCKED, THE BACK DOORS DO NOT LOCK WHEN THE TRUCK REACHES THE SPEED THAT ENGAGES ALL DOOR LOCKS WHEN IN DRIVE. THE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK WHEN PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO PARK. I COULD UNDERSTAND IF ONE OR THE OTHER IS MALFUNCTIONING, BUT NOT BOTH. THIS DEFINITELY INDICATES AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. MY CHILDREN CAN GET TRAPPED IN IF THEY TRY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN ACCIDENT, THEY COULD GET KIDNAPPED/ASSAULTED IF THE BACK DOOR LOCKS WERE PULLED UP BY THEM WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE, MY ITEMS COULD GET STOLEN IN MY TRUCK IF ITS LEFT PARKED AND UNATTENDED, ETC. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN WITH A HUGE NUMBER OF SCENARIOS. I HAVE HAD MANY OTHER ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK AS WELL THAT I WILL FILE SEPARATE COMPLAINTS ON EACH ISSUE. (TIPM ELECTRICAL ISSUES/NO POWER TO ANYTHING WHATSOEVER WITH THE TRUCK, TRANSMISSION SHIFT SOLENOID, STAYING IN 4TH GEAR, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR FLYING OUT OF THE TIRE WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH) THIS TRUCK IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MY FAMILIES LIFE AS WELL AS MY OWN. *TR

WHEELS, TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS
I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK TO WORK ONE MORNING. I WAS TRAVELING AT A STEADY SPEED OF 70MPH IN A STRAIGHT STRETCH. ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO WOBBLE AND I HAD THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ON MY DASH. AFTER NO MORE THAN 2 SECONDS THE TRUCK PULLED EXTREMELY HARD TO THE RIGHT. I KNEW THAT I HAD A FLAT TIRE. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO SAFELY PULL OFF AND AVOID THE TRACTOR TRAILER FROM SLAMMING INTO ME I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. AFTER INSPECTING THE TIRE, I NOTICED THAT I DIDN'T HAVE A VALVE STEM IN MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE. I ATTEMPTED TO CHANGE THE TIRE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE RAIN BUT BROKE THE CHEAP LUG WRENCH THAT IS SUPPLIED WITH THE VEHICLE. APPARENTLY THE DEALERSHIP OVER TORQUED THE LUG NUTS. I HAD TO GET A RIDE TO WORK, BEING 1.5 HOURS LATE AND LEAVE MY TRUCK ON THE INTERSTATE ALL DAY. MY FATHER IN LAW WORKS FOR A TIRE AND LUBE CENTER. HE PROFESSIONALLY INSPECTED IT. THE THREADS COMPLETELY STRIPPED OUT OF THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR AND VALVE STEM. THIS IS WHAT CAUSED IT TO VIOLENTLY EJECT FROM THE WHEEL ITSELF. BY GODS' GOOD GRACES I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER THAT DAY AND NOT CRASH OR DIE DUE TO THE HIGH SPEEDS. I HAVE HAD MANY OTHER ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK AS WELL THAT I WILL FILE SEPARATE COMPLAINTS ON EACH ISSUE. (TRANSMISSION SHIFT SOLENOID, STAYING IN 4TH GEAR, TIPM ELECTRICAL ISSUES/NO POWER TO ANYTHING ON THE INSIDE OF THE TRUCK, REAR POWER DOOR LOCKS NOT UNLOCKING/LOCKING WITH KEY FOB OR FRONT DOOR LOCK CONTROLS) THIS TRUCK IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MY FAMILIES LIFE AS WELL AS MY OWN. *TR
