    I ran into a similar situation with my 2nd truck I purchased and the dealer did fix issues twice... so I would go back to the dealer as much as you can... Try not to be a dick if you can help it...

    You can get a lawyer, but if you are not in good relations with the lawyer then it may cost a penny or two... seems like a huge hassle to sue someone over some leaks.... Does the truck run great other than the leaks here and there?

    You bought the truck "AS IS" Plenty of time to "pre-inspect". For anyone buying a used commercial vehicle spend the $35 and get a "RIG DIG" (same as a car fax only for commercial vehicles) and it will tell you if it's been in an accident and will also give you the DOT inspection history. There's another thread where a guy rolled his truck, "DEALER" fixed it and nothing but trouble. I guarantee the bank will have that truck for sale at the nearest Ritchie Bros. Auction and some idiot who didn't do any research will end up buying it.

    Don't worry, this is factory Daimler standard equipment. Self washing interior. Western Star has this feature also.
    Just like their videos say..."Does it cost more? Well yes it does."

    LOL
