THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER AND TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS ON THE DASHBOARD CONSOLE DISAPPEAR FREQUENTLY. THIS HAPPENS MORE IN COLD WEATHER THAN IN WARM WEATHER, AND THEY WILL REAPPEAR TEMPORARILY IF I BANG ON THE DASH, BUT THEN THEY DISAPPEAR AGAIN. AS A RESULT, I AM UNABLE TO TELL HOW FAST I AM GOING AND RECEIVED A SPEEDING TICKET.*AK
AT A BACKED UP STOP LIGHT THE VEHICLE WAS IN NEUTRAL WITH THE BRAKE ON. IT WAS HIT AT APPROX 35-40 MPH WHICH CAUSED IT TO RUN INTO A FORD MUSTANG. IN THAT PROCESS THE SEATS HAD BROKEN LETTING THE PASSENGERS LAY ALL THE WAY BACK IN THE EXTENDED CAB. SEAT BELTS WERE BEING USED. THERE WERE NO WAYS OF CORRECTING THE PROBLEM BUT GET NEW SEATS. IF YOU WERE ABLE TO DO SO. *NM
HAD SEVERAL FUSES SHOT UPON CRANKING VEHICLE, ON 6-22-01 WIFE CRANKED TRUCK AND HEAVY SMOKE POURED FROM UNDER THE HEADLINER OVER DRIVERS SIDE. I PULLED THE HEADLINER AND DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM. THE WIRING GOING THROUGH THE A POST TO THE DRIVERS SIDE SUNVISOR MIRROR, REAR VIEW MIRROR, AND PASSENGER'S SIDE SUNVISOR IS PLACED AGAINST THE SHEET METAL AND THEN A RUBBER PIECE IS THERE TO PREVENT THE WIRES FROM SHORTING OUT AND IT IS AGAINST THE SHEETMETAL AND RUBS THE HEADLINER AGAINST THE SHEETMETAL CAUSING IT TO SHORT OUT. THIS IS A VERY POOR DESIGN AND I FEEL SURE THIS WILL BE IF NOT ALREADY BE A REAL PROBLEM AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE. LUCKLY I WASN'T DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND GIVE TIT ENOUGH TIME TO CATCH THE HEADLINER ON FIRE.*AK
