1990 Dodge Dakota Club Cab review from North America
"A mechanics nightmare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Computer (SBEC), fuel injectors, oxygen sensor, EGR valve, throttle position sensor, front seal (twice), timing cover gasket, valve cover gaskets, u-joints, harmonic balancer, differential (play in gears), radio, speaker, various trim & moldings, seat position mechanism, seat tilt mechanism, seatbelt retractors and gas cap (incorporated vent).
General comments?
This was a well maintained one-owner truck when I purchased it. One problem after another. Couldn't trust it enough to go long distances.
