OIL HOSE LEAK. OIL PIPE WHICH CONNECTS TO THE ENGINE. WHILE DRIVING THE HOSE WILL LEAK AND YOU WILL NEVER BE ADVISED THAT THE OIL IS LOW. "A SERVICE BULLETIN" WENT OUT TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC HOSE TO METAL. WHEN YOU TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TRY TO TELL YOU ITS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT AN ENGINE NOT RECEIVING OIL AND YOUR TRUCK JUST BREAKING DOWN IS A SAFETY ISSUE.
