THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN WRECKED OR DAMAGED. I'M TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER AGAIN IN FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT. THIS PROBLEM FIRST APPEARED WITH LESS THAN 8,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WITHIN THE LAST 8 MONTHS AND NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. THE TRUCK NOW HAS ABOUT 22,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
