While driving truck pulls badly to right. Dealer told consumer it would straighten up. Consumer states there suppose to be a recall on vehicle. The right front wheel assembly fell off due to weld failure. The vehicles surges forward randomly. There was smell of fuel inside the cab when windows are up. The steering box had failed and replaced. Tie rods and motor compartment seal failed. The customer had returned the truck to the dealer because of numerous problems.
Twice now, I have been driving this truck when my engine suddenly stalled. 1. Oct. 2001 - while driving on a mountain road (approximately 12% grade), the engine suddenly stalled. I was able to stop using the emergency brake. This occurred on a narrow mountain road, in heavy traffic. I directed traffic around me, and then attempted to restart the engine. Fortunately, it started, and I drove it to the dealer. The lift pump was replaced. (part number 5015723AC pump) the odometer read 33,329.
