    PAINT ON TOP OF PASSENGER CAB HAS BEGUN TO BUBBLE AND PEEL. THE PAINT HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED, WASHED AND WAXED IN A REGULAR BASIS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE AS I HAVE BEGUN TO NOTICE QUITE A FEW OF DOKOTA P/U'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. NO SAFETY DEFECT FOUND IN SUMMARY. *AK

    THE OVERDRIVE IN VEHICLE, CHEWS UP THE TRANSMISSION DUE TO THE BEARINGS WORKING LOOSE. THIS WAS CAUSED BY A LACK OF LUBRICATION ON THE BEARINGS. THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT TO BE ABLE TO SHIFT INTO GEARS WHEN THIS HAPPENS. WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALER TO HAVE MECHANIC CHECK.

    THE VEHICLE IS WHITE IN COLOR. LAST YEAR APPROXIMATELY IN JUNE 1998 I NOTICED THAT THE PAINT ON THE CAB OF THE TRUCK STARTED TO PEEL. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND IS VERY CLEAN. NOW I HAVE A CAB THAT IS AN EYE SORE DUE TO THE PEELING SPOTS ON THE VEHICLE. ANOTHER CONCERN IS THAT I NOTICED CHIPS OF PAINT IN THE DRIVEWAY WHERE I PARK THE VEHICLE, AND I AM AFRAID THAT WITH SMALL CHILDREN THAT THE CHIPS OF PAINT COULD BE A HAZARD OR DO HARM. *AK
