as some of you know ive been having problems with the dealer fixing my truck before the holidays well now that theyve past ive been trying to get a hold of the guy that was dealing with my truck only to barely find out he doesent work there anymore so im getting pretty tired of this dealer never answering my calls so i was wondering which dealer do you guys trust with your vehicle?

btw my problem is that my traction control lights and abs lights come on when im driving. two wheelspeed sensors where replaced and supposibly the wiring was checked but the problem is still there. then they tried to blame my lowering kit so i put it back to stock height knowing that it would not fix anything but still did it and the problem is still there so i really just want to get this fixed so i can enjoy my truck again.

Dealerships are a pita! I'm not in Houston, but you have my support! Good luck.

I've had good luck in the past with Ron Carter. The problem is they are always swapped and you need to make an apt. I can give you my service adviser if you want to try them.

I'm betting you're using Clear Lake Dodge now aren't you?

I try not to deal with dealers, but the ones that have been good to me are Helfman, River Oaks, and Gillman.

Ask for a review card, if they are a 5 star dealer if they get a bad review it messes up their bonus money.
If you where here in OKC I'd have you take if to my wife's dealership. Let me know if there's anything else we can do!

Check your paperwork and see if that specific person that was let go, that worked on ur truck.
You should be able to use that to your advantage about ur ongoing issue. Definatly doesn't hurt to take it to another dealer for a second opinion.

that's crazy! i could see maybe the traction control lighting up if you didn't have good tread on your back 2 tires, but not sure on the abs... might replace the fuses??

that was the weird thing it was the front tires that were bad lol i have no clue what is going on but my abs light is gone and my cruise control works once again so idk i guess ill just say this was one of those weird problems that only dodge has.... I just really hope it doesent bite me in the but to put my lowering kit back on
