SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, APPLIED BRAKES WHEN APPROACHING A RED LIGHT. BRAKE PEDAL WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR, TRUCK WENT INTO THE INTERSECTION AND FINALLY CAME TO A STOP. THERE WERE NO INDICATION OF PROBLEM BEFORE THIS OCCURRED. TRUCK TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP. ALL BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED AND WERE REPLACED. I REQUESTED THAT THE SERVICE STATION SAVE THE RUSTED PARTS WHICH ARE NOW IN MY GARAGE. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
POWER DOOR LOCK FAILURE. CANNOT LOCK OR UNLOCK 3 OUT OF THE TRUCKS 4 DOORS WITH REMOTE OR THE ON BOARD LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTON. THE DRIVER DOOR FAILED 3 WEEK AGO, THE DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR FAILED LAST WEEK AND THE PASSENGER SIDE READ DOOR FAILED YESTERDAY. THIS IS BOTH A SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUE. THE BACK DOOR LOCKS CAN ONLY BE ACCESSED FROM INSIDE THE TRUCK IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY WITH NO KEY ACCESS. FROM A SECURITY STAND POINT THE FAILURE IS NOT KNOWN UNTIL THE DOOR EITHER DOES NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK AND YOU NOTICE THE FAILURE. THIS BECOMES AN ISSUE AS YOU MAY THINK THAT THE VEHICLES DOORS ARE LOCKED BUT THEY ARE NOT. ALSO THE INABILITY TO LOCK THE DOOR IN THE EVENT SOMEONE IS TRYING TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE I.E. CARJACKING. I HAVE SCHEDULED A REPAIR WITH THE DEALER WHO ADMITTED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. *TR
