I test drove a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 at Priced Right Auto. Loved the truck but the check gauges light came on after the oil pressure dropped to 0. I told them i did not want the truck unless this was fixed they said that they knew what the problem was and just a simple oil sensor needed to be replaced. I got from them that they would fix the problem and after making appointments and taking the truck over there. They didn't have time to get to it. Leaving work one day the truck broke down and after calling them they towed the truck to their shop. The a/c compressor seized up, they would only fix it at my cost. I had to pay the tow bill and get them to put a smaller belt on to bypass the a/c as i didnt have the money to fix it. But they replaced the sensor while it was there. The check gauges and oil pressure still did the same thing. I called and told them this and after a lot of unreturned phone calls from them i take the truck over there. They replaced the oil sending unit and said the oil pump was worn out and they would not fix it. Well i finally got the money to get the oil pump replaced and the mechanic said the pump was not worn out it was something internal. The engine needs to be rebuilt. Priced Right knew this all along! It will cost 3500 of money i do not have to rebuilt the engine for a truck i'm still making monthly payments on.
