Driver's side door and passager's side doors have cracks within the frame and panel. Both door's are rusting at the bottom when driving at 25 MPH on wet pavement. Also, when applying brakes rear brake's will lock up.
While towing a 19' travel trailer, the trailer fishtailed wildly causing vehicle to lose control and flip trailer. I had towed the trailer a previous 5 years without incident. This wreck occurred only 2 months after purchasing this vehicle. Not sure at this time if it indeed was the truck or not.
The extended cab where bench seats are located, the rear windshield latch pokes out when going over bumpy road, causing the child's head to hit this part which can cause injuries. Please provide further information and VIN#.
