20000 | AT 20K MILES THERMOSTAT HOUSING WAS LEAKING EVERYWHERE....NOW AT 23K MILES AND HAVE HAD TIERODS REPLACED...AND NOW THE BALL JOINTS(WHICH ARE PART OF THE CONTROL ARM) HAVE FAILED. HAVE HAD THE TRUCK TO LOCAL DEALER TWICE IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS FOR CONTROL ARM REPLACEMENT BUT BOTH TIMES THEY TOLD ME THE NEW ARMS WERE AS BAD AS THE ONES ON THE TRUCK NOW. DEALER HAS ORDERED TWO MORE PAIRS OF ARMS IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET A GOOD PAIR. THE SERVICE MANAGER IS TELLING ME DAKOTAS AND DURANGOS ARE BOTH EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM,,I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE BY FAR. DEALER TELLS ME THERE IS NO KNOWN REPAIR FOR THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT EVEN IF DEALER CAN GET TWO NEW GOOD ARMS I WILL DEFINETLY BE BACK WITHIN A YEARS TIME OR SOONER TO GET THEM REPLACED AGAIN. I TOLD MANAGER I APRECCIATE HIS HONESTY BUT HE HAS DEFINETLY CONVINCED ME NOT TO OWN THIS PIECE OF CRAP WHEN IT'S OUT OF WTY. THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN USED FOR PLOWING, TOWING, OR ANY TYPE OF COMMERCIAL USE. HAVE HAD DEALER ALSO LOOK AT A NOISE THAT I HAVE IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I AM EXPERIENCING EXTREME LEVELS OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT NOISE COMING THROUGH THE DEFROSTER DUCTS. ANYONE WHO RIDES IN THE TRUCK IMMEDIATELY ASKS WHATS UP WITH ALL THE NOISE...SOUNDS LIKE ENGINE IS SITTING IN THE CAB WITH US. DEALER HAS CONFIRMED THE NOISE IS TERRIBLE BUT CANNOT FIND WHAT IS CAUSING IT..I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE A QUOTE FROM MY SERVICE ADVISOR.."I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU CAN STAND DRIVING THAT THING WITH ALL THE NOISE, FRONT END CLUNKING ON EVERY BUMP FROM BOTH SIDES AND THE ENGINE NOISE LOUD ENOUGH TO DEMAND TURNING UP THE RADIO TO AN OBNOXIOUS LEVEL, I WOULD BE GOING CRAZY" THAT CAME FROM THE MOUTH OF MY SERVICE ADVISOR!!!! |

0 | Well, the most prominent problem is the pinging (any octane gas). When it was brand-new, it only did it under heavy load (towing uphill). But after it hit 2000 miles, I hear it anytime I'm moderately acclerating (but does NOT do it at WOT). The dealer here claims they can't hear it, but will not go on a test drive with me either! I also have a paint problem I wont deal with until summer - too much paint was applied on the driver's door, and on the "rocker" panels behind the passenger rear tire. This is most noticed after its been washed and waxed (Intense blue paint), at first I thought they were water runs (missed some water w/ the chamois or something) but turned out to be paint runs!! Also on the pass. door, there's some dust embedded in the paint. |
9000 | At about 9,000 miles a TSB was performed on the transmission solenoids? to alleviate a CHECK ENGINE light. |
14000 | It emits a sulfur smell from the Catalytic Converter (noticed recently 14,000 miles) - has yet to be looked at by the dealer. |
14500 | The front rotors were resurfaced due to warpage. Despite the problems I've had with this truck - I still think its superior to the Toyota and Chevy turds I've had in the past, now if only the dealer can solve the above problems! If anyone else can give me info, or share experiences, please e-mail at fsdaa1@uaf.edu thanks! |

8000 | Little over 8k miles, lost the fog lights. Took to local 5 star dealer here in Fargo, North Dakota. I told the dealer that I had noticed that the headlight switch would get very warm to the touch near the rheostat (panel lights dimmer), dealer replaced headlight switch. Fog lights work again now, but new headlight switch still gets very warm. |

0 | The Best Truck I have ever owned. Since the beginning the transmission has clucked into reverse on occasions. |
2000 | I have noticed sice about 2000 miles the motor ticks with pretty much any octane, alittle less with 93. Dealer says that they can't hear anything wrong, others say its normal for a OHV engine. |
6000 | Had my Headlight switch replaces due to the foglamps failing at about 6000 miles. Other than that, nothing. |
