Actually, the 100,000 mile warranty is what I wanted. All I really want is
to GET MY TRUCK BACK! It has been at Arbor Dodge for 29 days strait.

|For one... good luck. They will tell you in order to get another vehicle
you
|need to pay for tax tags and title all over again, you lose whatever money
|you had down, and they deduct about 15 to 20 cents for every mile that is
on
|your vehicle. They will most likely offer you the 100,000 miles warranty
|that has a $100 dollar detuctable. I tried to go after the lemon law too,
|and this is what I went through. In other words, you GIVE them your truck,
|and buy a NEW one at Cost. No trade, no nothing. The lemon law protects the
|manufacturer and not the consumer. And in some states you can't even
attempt
|the lemon law if you are over 15,000 miles.
|
|Good luck.

|>Date, Duration, Problem(s) / Solution(s).

|>07/12/1999 1 day
|>Broken cup-holder, fog lights inoperative, transmission not shifting into

|>
|>07/26/1999-07/30/1999 5 days
|>Scheduled for transmission work, problem getting worse.
|>Nothing was done until a tech test-drove it just before close
|>of business on 7/28/99, I was told the parts were ordered.
|>By 07/30/1999, the parts had still not shown up and I was
|>told the tech was leaving on vacation that day. I picked up the vehicle
and

|>Department.
|>
|>08/26/1999-09/22/1999 28 days
|>Excuses given; (1) wrong parts were ordered, (2) parts are

|>crash, (5) new transmission was ordered, (6) it was the wrong
transmission,
