| 2007 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT THE 2007 DAKOTA 4X4 [V-6] 6SP. MANUAL TRANS] WHEN UPON PASSING A VEHICLE ON I-5 THE THROTTLE STUCK WIDE OPEN. I STOMPED HARD ON THE GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT RELEASED. I TOOK IT TO LITHIA IN ROSEBURG ORE. WHERE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. THEY TOOK IT IN, THEN WHEN I PICKED IT UP THEY ASSURED ME THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM, THEY DID NOT, IT STILL DOES IT AND I ALMOST PLOWED INTO A DITCH ON A NEARBY RURAL ROAD. THIS TRUCK HAD 6 MILES ON IT WHEN I TOOK POSSESSION OF IT. SEEMS THAT IT SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES AT THIS STAGE OF THE GAME. CURRENTLY IT HAS 14,657 MILES ON IT. *TR |
