At 61,000 miles throttle body failed by putting engine in limp mode several times on freeway creating dangerous driving situations. Dealer replaced throttle body with new. The issue did not occur again until now at 85,000 miles. Dealer picked up a throttle body code from history. However, since the code is not active they do not have an active code they cannot replace throttle body until it fails completely.

Bad cylinder head heat sensor. Dealership charged me one thousand dollars to change water pump instead of fixing the sensor and just charging me for that so I ended up paying for both when I had to get truck towed back to them when the coolant over temp warning put truck into limp mode again. They should have just fixed the sensor and changed the oil because it floods the cylinder head with fuel when this happens and that fuel gets into the engine oil. If I had not noticed this it would have destroyed the engine if I drove it too much with the oil diluted with fuel. More pissed about the lies than the money.
