This is regarding the 6.7l cummins engine. Throttle lag from a dead stop such as merging into traffic or crossing a road is dangerous. This lag could very well cause me to get rear ended or broad sided. There is also very significant lag after the gas pedal has been released and then pressed once again. An example is when slowing down when approaching a slower car and then changing lanes and pressing and…

The rear differential locked up while towing our rv, which caused us to jackknife and subsequently flipping our rv. The rv is a total loss and the truck has significant damage. There was a loud pop or bang and then maybe a second or so before the rear end seized. The truck shut down during this which left us with no brakes for the rv and the truck almost flipped with rv. The mechanic at the service center showed us…

There was no accident thankfully. I took my truck to a dealership because it was shifting hard. I took it in twice and both times the dealerships wouldn't even look at it. They pluged it in to their computers and told me it needed an update. Finally one day i raised cane about it and they kept it and found that the torque converter was bad. They replaced it and the pump in the transmission. That took two weeks. I…

While towing approximately 11000 lbs, the vehicle began bucking aggressively while in 4th and 5th gear. We were towing three horses and had to slow the vehicle and downshift into third gear to get the bucking to stop. Also, the vehicle will not up-shift after utilizing the transmission braking feature when descending a grade while towing. You have to manually disable the tow haul mode and wait for transmission to…

A dead throttle pedal occurs at two different instances. One, when from a dead stop pulling out into traffic. The accelerator pedal will press but the vehicle will not go or change rpm for a second, then the vehicle will move. Two, when trying to pass someone, occasionally the vehicle will exhibit the same dead pedal response for a moment then accelerate. This is most definitely unsafe for my family. Multiple…
