Front suspension repaired fixed but did not fixed the vibration in front tires. Front driver side hub and bearing assembly failed since I had truck(used). Had front end redone but wheel still vibrated and took it too dealership July 3, 2021 and stated the hub and bearing grinding and growling and activates abs lights. Fuel line needs replace due to rust problems and dealership stated that the pump and retaining cam are very rusted and has a spot on the pump that is wet but not soaking wet(fail dealership looking for lawsuit for fire hazard). Fuel lines are rusted so whole truck needs repair. I spent $5400 on used truck and putting more money into it with repairs due to rust, parts and labor which is stupid as some parts do not take long if dealership have tools. I don't know incident as there no accident or anything.

5 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 05/11/2014

I was replacing two bad O2 sensors and felt something wet on my fingers, that smelled like gas. When I started the truck to move it I notice a drip trail off gas. I took the truck to my mechanic and was advised that the gas lines were rusted/rotted through and needed to be replaced. I have never had to replace gas lines or brake lines on another vehicle. This is very unusual. I think these gas lines and the brake lines I reported earlier were made of inferior material. I do feel extreemly fortunate that I did not crash or catch on fire.

6 Other Fuel System problem

The steel fuel line is leaking. My mechanic says that the fuel line rusted and needs to be replaced. Their problem now is that it is impossible to snake the new fuel line through the body. It appears that the fuel line was installed before the body and the truck is not designed for its replacement.
