    Tailgate seems slightly misaligned

    There was a recall on my 2021 vehicle for this, they had to check alignment. Mine was fine, but apparently some aren’t and could cause the tailgate to come down when hitting a bump. Funny though how they can recall for this and not the bloody manifolds that are a safety hazard as well and...

    Exhaust manifolds

    Someone can have my manifolds, if they ever arrive at the dealer, last I heard there wasn’t even an eta. i had enough and traded the truck in. I have two small kids in my vehicle at times and I refuse to drive around in a truck that expensive, or any other vehicle, with exhaust leaking and...

    Exhaust manifolds

    My dealer said they were in back order for a while And could be months. Now I’m in Canada, so that doesn’t shock me, it’s normal for stuff to take months here.

    Exhaust manifolds

    But it’s a new set, which will warp again. A used set is already gone through hundreds of heating/cooling cycles and is already done warping. If you flatten that surface, you have a set that should last quite a ehile

    Exhaust manifolds

    Possibly, all I know is that garage explained to me that the heating cycles warp them and that causes the bolts to break and in some cases, crack the manifolds if they warp enough. Both mine are cracked and been cracked for a while, I figure started with just over 30k kms on the truck. If they...

    Exhaust manifolds

    Problem I think is, that new ones will warp and crack eventually as well, but if you had a set that was used and not cracked yet, you could sand the surface flat and use them, essentially solving the issue, because they have already warped, but resurfaced, so heat won’t warp them any further.

    Surging at low speeds?

    2021 DT here also and both my manifolds are cracked. Had it to the garage yesterday. No timeframe on the parts, could be several months, which is insane considering this could cause fumes inside the cabin. Been experiencing a similar thing with the surging and other weird symptoms since the...

    Thanks for the replies and ideas..appreciated. I'll try an alignment first, wouldn't hurt to have one done anyway.

    New Tires Burning Smell

    The level? It has been on the truck since new and alignment done, plus no issues with any tires previously, just these, but onvioulsy it can go out of alignment at any time.

    New Tires Burning Smell

    Thanks, I check the pads and rotor when I get the smell, but nothing hot like that...I'd definitely feel it or have other warning signs I think. Pads are going on 2 years old and only half worn, so no obvious wear issue thay would be present in a sticking caliper.

    New Tires Burning Smell

    It is unique, true and it definitely is, was just trying to rule everything else out. I'm going to have alignment checked for peace of mind anyway...balance is fine, truck runs at all speeds, no vubration present

    New Tires Burning Smell

    Definitely not rubbing anywhere and not hot to the touch anywhere either. It's.strange. not quite so bad now with a little.more air in them, but at this point.im leaning towards alignment or just rubber flying up and getting onto the exhaust.due to the heavier tread and the space created by...

    New Tires Burning Smell

    Ok, so odd situation here and wondering if anyone has experienced the same..excuse the long message! 2021 Sport model with 20" oem wheels. I had 275/60/20's all season tires on it for a few months, no issues at all. Recently I bought a new set of Goodyear wrangler duratracs in the same size...
