[QUOTE="smgilles, post: 1425428, member: 22253"] Thanks for the reply and input. I always appreciate reading your thoughts. 1. I agree with the transmission because it was fine for the first 9,000 miles and then the dealership completed the 'roll pin recall' repair and I puked fluid all over the interstate. Initially they thought it was a bad transmission pan seal and a bad front seal between the transmission and transfer case. They replaced both seals, I kept leaking transmission fluid in the area of the front seal after picking it up and getting 120 miles down the interstate again. They claimed it was leaking around the transmission case bolts where the transfer case bolts to the transmission. I never visually confirmed as it made no difference on whether I got to drive it and was all under warranty. I think the dealership caused the crack housing/busted bolt vs now what your wrote, but I had no way to prove other than to wait for ~40 days for a replacement transmission after being towed home >100 miles twice in the middle of January in Minnesota. 2. Diagnostics were performed via TSB with leak down test and everything was replaced but still losing vacuum so opened up hubs assemblies and felt that were way past worn so replaced under warranty. 3. I was >36,000 miles and told me horn is wear/tear part. 4. The best I can tell (which can be a mile off) the oil leak is either passenger side valve cover vs timing chain gasket but difficult to see completely. I took pictures best I could. See my previous posts on this for images. I have 52,000 miles on truck so will have remedied prior to 60k. 5. No aftermarket alarms, etc. The door button will not lock if any kind of humidity/rain/water/sleet. It works great when dry outside. This has been looked at/torn apart twice with "can't find anything wrong". It's annoying but not a deal breaker. I appreciate your feedback. Again, I really like the truck, enough to buy another one when next generation comes out, but I expected less issues and am definitely jealous of those who have nothing but driving bliss. [/QUOTE]
