More history on my 1996 Dodge truck with engine stalling problems. The engine light keeps coming on and the truck is now running rough. The last Dodge dealership in miami, oklahoma couldn't find the problem. They now tell me that they would prefer I not bring my truck back to them. Dodge corp's customer service was rude, telling me that he truck is out of warranty now (even though it was in for this same problem while under warranty and they can't find/fix the problem); the rep tells me that it's our tough luck now--very rude. When I asked to speak with the supervisor or district manager for my area, the rep told me she had the final say, I didn't have a warranty, and she didn't have to help me locate the district manager for my area. You have my extensive history/complaints on file with this truck (peeling paint, flat bearing in overdrive, 4 bent wheels, recurring engine stalls to name only a few of the major issues). What is a consumer to do now. Don't tell me to find an attorney--too expensive and I won't end up with enough money to fix the truck the way it should be fixed. Can't sell to anyone for what it should be worth due to these issues, and won't sell this way due to my conscious. This truck is going to kill us one way or another.
