What owners wrote

While driving the truck and come to a stop sign the truck wouldn't stop, got out to check the truck and noticed that the rear axle fluids were leaking on the brakes, and the vehicle had to be towed to a mechanic.

September 1997

ABS system comes on at low speeds without brake pressed-vehicle then is hard to stop and pulls to the right. I have replaced all pads and calipers.machine bled system and replaced left frt speed sensor. Took to dealer and was told that the front hubs are exposed and most of the time tear apart and cleaning solves. Am upset the dealer charged a diagnostic fee for something he could have told me on the phone!
