THIS SOMETIMES OCCURRED WHEN THE DRIVER STILL HAD A FOOT ON THE BRAKE, OTHER TIMES JUST AS FOOT LIFTED FROM THE BRAKE, BUT ALWAYS WITHOUT DRIVER TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR. INCIDENTS HAPPENED AT LEAST 6 TIMES IN ONE MONTH AND NOT CONSISTENTLY, WHICH CAUGHT DRIVER OFF GUARD EVEN MORE.

INCIDENTS OCCURRED RANDOMLY AT LEAST 6 DIFFERENT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY. *JB

BRAKE PROBLEMS: BRAKE PEDAL GOING TO FLOOR UPON APPLYING. *TR

THE AIR-CONDITIONER HAS NOT COOLED PROPERLY SINCE DAY OF PURCHASE.THE DEALERSHIP TRIED REPAIRING IT BY FLUSHING THE A/C SYSTEM AND REFILLING IT WITH FREON. IT SEEMED TO COOL A LITTLE BETTER, BUT IT STILL THROWS WARM AIR WHEN TRUCK IS IDLING. BIG PROBLEM WHEN YOU LIVE IN THE DESERT AND A/C IS A MUST, NOT A LUXURY. *TR
