I don't like or need the flashy LEDs.
I don't...

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

I don't have a jack or jack stands.
I wasn't expecting issues this soon.
I'll have to have the shop do it this time.
The biggest $$$ is the tires. That was a complete blindside.

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

Just got the cherry on top.......of this bad news.

Said they tried to align it anyway, and it was 1 degree off at max adjustment.

:(

Best to fix it...

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

Well....got a shocker!

Place I took it says I need new tires.

I don't remember the wording specifically, but something about bad edge...

Re: lock difficult to turn...

my passenger door is finicky.
I have to jiggle the key to get it to lock/unlock.
Once it's working it works until I remove the key.

Got some graphite in there, and it seems better, but I...

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

I checked and nothing feels loose but that doesn't mean there isn't.

No vibrations in the brake pedal, nor any change from when I'm acceleration.

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

Re: '07 Sport....first truck in 16 years!

I sprayed sensor this morning, but it still did it twice after hitting bumps.

If it keeps up...plan on removing it and cleaning it well.
If still bad....just remove it altogether.
