I was driving my 2002 4.7L (10000 miles on it) along the highway last thursday with the truck in cruise when all of a sudden my revs started climbing and my speed started dropping. I had to get towed into the nearest dodge dealer after spending 20 minutes on the phone with roadside assistance. They were of course closed. Friday they looked at it and couldn't determine the problem. Then they were closed for the weekend. They looked at it for monday and tuesday and finally determined it to be an electronic component in the transmission (duh). They didn't have the part in stock but said that they would order it from their warehouse. Thursday, one week later, they call and inform us that the part they need is no where to be found in Canada,they would have to order it from the states. Then they tell me that my warranty will only supply a rental car for a maximum of 5 days. It's been there for a week and will probably be there for another. To top it off the dealer where I left it is 200 miles from where I live. I was away at work when it happened. I'm supposed to go on holidays tomorrow in B.C. and I'll have to go pick it up when I get home. Ahhhhhhh! I bought a new truck so this wouldn't happen. Anyone know a good chev dealer?

Tell them that 5 day rental for a car is CRAP!!!!!

Make it a BIGGGG problem for them...DO NOT let them give it to you. Your the one w/ a screwed up truck.....make them pay for it....

Don't let dealers get the best of you.

Also if they start crap again go on Dodges web site and find the customer service number and threaten them that you will call the District Manager from dodge.....hehe Thats what i did :O)

its amazing how fast they turn around....
