2000 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"Good truck, but it need some help in the mechanical area"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rotors need replaced at 20,000 miles and 40,000 miles.
Check engine light comes on every 5000 miles.
Vary poor gas mileage for a v6 engine.
squeak for front end of truck when sharp turning.
A lot of valve noise when in overdrive.
General comments?
Great truck, but vary hard on gas.
Breaks need a lot of help it gets expensive to make repairs every 2000 miles.
