    Leaving the company isn't going to solve the "Idoit Light Syndrome" in these Post-Emission trucks, as the next company you work for will have the same or similar trucks with the same problems.

    It's the luck of the draw that you may be assigned a truck with less problems than another, but basically in a nutshell, they're all junk.

    Jack up the radiator cap, ---
    then put a new truck under the
    jacked-up radiator cap.
    It'd be a good idea to replace the
    radiator cap at that time, too.

    Omg. Yes the head lights work fine. This is the 3rd truck we have had in two months.

    I was just about to say that all the idiot lights on is usually a sign that the alternator is dying a horrible death.

    Darn those Trucks assembled in Mexico, always causing drivers to see lights. Note the condition on your daily Vehicle Inspection Report and Drive it like you stole it. Next time you go in for hometime, drop the trailer and bobtail to the nearest dealer.

    I don't know what's worse. Electrical gremlins or having to truck hop so frequently.:eek:

    Dude. I'm just done with this company at this point. SO MUCH DOWN TIME. They gave my husband and I $1000 a piece thinking that it covers the 15 days we were down. This was 2 days ago and now more #### is wrong.

    Oh yeah, I got it all fixed up then let someone else have it. Then went and adopted another problem child.

    Yea, But to get to another company, you are responsible for taking this truck to your home terminal first, unless you feel you have no option but to abandon the truck. Why risk smudging your record (DAC)?

    Does it drive?
