| 123000 mi US $100 |
Passenger side front u joint needed replacing |
| 36900 mi | Hunting between gear 2-3 or torque converter. Dealer claims could not duplicate, but it has gotten worse since then. |
| 86000 mi US $700 |
No grease in spline where the two halves of driveshaft come together (two-piece shaft), caused binding and ruined all u-joints. Shop says this is typical problem, and parts are non-greaseable. |
| 117000 mi US $289 |
4 wheel drive gearbox linkage to hand shifter in the cab. Rubber bushings disintegrated in the linkage and needed to be replaced. Also had transmission serviced and 6 tires rotated in this service. |

turbocharged 6-cylinder diesel automatic 4WD
| 139860 mi C $200 |
Front u joint on front drive shaft replaced |
| 148800 mi | CV joint on front driveshaft failed. Transfer case broke away from transmission. Nothing done yet, waiting on estimates but probably can't afford it now, will either park it for a while or sell it. |
