I was cleaning my truck and taking inventory of some oddities I noticed with it. I had already got the feeling that my Certified Pre-Owned vehicle had been in a major accident as I had to have the hood painted for a clear coat trick repair done shadily. I was driving my truck down the street to my house and I heard it rattling an echo off the house walls. When I got home I put my fingers under the edge of my bed and lifted it up! The bed was loose on the drivers side. I had to use my impact to snug the bolts down. I have never had a truck bed be loose from a dealership before. This was an outrage. The next week while driving the truck, it died for my wife in the middle of an intersection. She was able to take the truck into the local stealership. They had us come back 4 times in a month before they figured out the fuel pump was leaking fuel and wouldn't hold pressure. Since it was CPO they replaced the pump for $100. The Service Manager asked if I had been in a wreck with the truck, I said no but I hav noticed several odd issues with the truck. He quickly shut up as if he knew that something was amiss with my vehicle.

After reading the many complaints listed, I am sure this is yet another TIPM issue. First symptom...tire pressure system maintenance message coming on...tire pressure checked and was fine and the message stays on. One tire not registering on display at all. The door locks intermittently go crazy and trigger at random times when driving. The car will crank but won't turn over. It would start with the remote but when the key fob was inserted, it would stall. It would take a series of random acts to juke it into starting. Sometimes I would just give up and use a different vehicle because it was not cooperating. I took it to the dealership early in the week. Of course it started for them, but they did the computer software updates anyway. They did 2 different ones. They said it was fixed but they kept it so they could replace a tire pressure sensor. They called me the next day and said it would not start. They said the fuel pump needed to be replaced. Had to order it and there it sat another day. They got the fuel pump in on Day 4 and said it was definitely the culprit, but...could they keep it overnight...that's confidence for you. I said it could not stay because I had to go out of town in the morning. When I mentioned these symptoms and the likelihood of it being the TIPM, I was told not likely and this was definitely the fix. I pick the car up and drive it successfully for the remainder of the day. Almost always, once the car starts (if it starts), it is good for the day as long as it is driven every couple of hours. So, the next morning...same symptoms with starting...as if the fuel pump was never replaced. Except, this time, I could not juke it into starting at all after many attempts. I had to call a tow truck...and, no, the dealership did not offer to tow it for me...I had to use my auto insurance roadside assistance. Now they acknowledge the "possibility" that it is the TIPM. I thank this forum for arming me with the knowledge and unfortunate experiences of others so I can keep going until this is resolved completely. I have an extended warranty, so this has all been covered less my 100 dollar deductible so far. My sanity is another issue altogether!
