2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab SLT review from North America
"Not enough bang for the buck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a condition in which my vehicle had to be left for a week with a fuel indicator problem. The meter would not read and the fuel tank would not fill due to the fuel pump system breaking loose. The truck was in this condition when I bought it. This took two weeks to repair due to the dealership inability to fault isolate the problem.
The rear tire has blown when hitting a pothole at low speed causing damage to the braking system.
General comments?
Sadly, this truck is no longer the inexpensive workhorse truck it used to be.
