Service Brakes problem #1

The vehcile only has 1779 miles. The ac unit operated for short period time. The outside temperture was 95 degree fahrenheit all the controls were not inoperate. The a/c compressor pump was not functioning. The only items working was the fan motor blowing hot air. I restated the vehicle and still no cold air output. The dealership said they could not find any problems with a/c unit. The unit operated normaly and the tempertuer is 35 degrees output. The second problem the dash panel emergency light cable was never installed. The dealer had to order the part.

Service Brakes problem #2

Vehicle was towing horse trailer. Gave an indication message to check trailer break wiring. I did so and all was working fine. I loaded my horses and pulled out onto the road. Traveling 10 mph the truck completely shut off, no brakes, no warning, I helplessly rolled to a stop. The truck then turned on electrically, but did not start the engine completely by itself. Two minutes later, the truck turned itself off electrically. The motor was never running. I had it towed to a dealership in which it took them five days to repair. The truck has 17,000 miles on it. If I would’ve been traveling on the expressway or going any faster, I could’ve killed people. . I personally have ptsd from ever driving this truck hooked to a trailer again. There should have been some kind of warning system. I should have never lost my brakes. I purchased this truck as a towing vehicle from my horse trailer and now I am terrified to use it!.
