Dt*: the contact stated the door locks failed to operate normally using the key fob. the locks must be manually opened or closed. the vehicle was inspected by an independent mechanic who determined the actuator needed to be replaced. the contact made several attempts to purchase a used actuator from local junk yards without success. | |||

When steering wheel is not all the way up the turn signals, hazard lights, and the brake lights do not work. i have taken it to the dealership and they state that there is a clip in the steering column that is broke. this all happened 2 months after i bought the truck and they will not fix it due to there being no warranty. at the same time the keyless entry stopped working as well as the automatic door locks. they stated that this was because the motor in both doors had went out. seems odd to me that they would both go at the same time. *jb | |||
