In owners' own words
Was getting into truck turn on ignition and put truck in gear, then proceeded to takeoff then all of a sudden the ignition just cut off, I don't know if my knee slightly hit it or what but that sucker cut off, this has happened more than once, also the tire light stays before the dealer said it was a faulty stem, then I had it replaced and it still stays on, so please is there some resolution for these things!
