An unbelievable experience with Dierks Diesel!
The truck is a 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel, the problem, mega smoke when starting the truck first thing in the morning, every day without fail. Also, there is a small leak from under the front end of the truck.
Dierks Diesel is where I dropped the truck off to get fixed, you know the rest, we'll look at the truck, blah blah blah.
The point of the experience, receive a text that the truck was ready and come take care of the invoice. 3100.00 and change. Fair enough, upon leaving his last words to me were, "The truck hasn't been started all day, no smoke" Started the truck, no smoke, got this warm feeling, no smoke, YIPPIE!!! Brought the truck home, parked for the night, ready for tomorrow. Have to do a dump run, looks like 3 loads!!
Good Morning, looks like a great day to get the garbage to the dump. Let's get the truck started and loaded, busy garbage day for me!! What the hell, smoke, smoke, smoke and more smoke and now leaks in four places. Oh dear, this is not fixed, no really, you can tell!!!
ok, what to do? Well, walk away! Sent a text saying "the truck still smokes and smokes and smokes, unbelievable!" Had to chill a bit so off to cut the grass, really helps me think. Back from cutting the grass, a missed call, it is him, simply sent a text saying "I will take care of it, thanks!", then blocked the number.
I think to myself (what a wonderful world of course) but I feel like I just got robbed. Anyways, the phone number is blocked. Not sure what the response would be, maybe bring the truck back, who knows, who cares. Why would I return the truck for repair repair after the first repair was incomplete, honestly you can tell! Just does not seem like a place for my truck to continue getting work done!
So, I walk away into the sunset, wondering if anyone is out there that knows how to work on diesel trucks, again, I find myself on a quest for knowledge, the Dodge will get fixed. It is just that Dierks Diesel does not work for me. read more
