I bought my truck brand new last month on April 18th I have just over 1000 miles on it and within the first 400 miles I had problems with starting the truck, when I turn the key most of the time it starts, but occasionally if I let go of the key about the time it normally starts the engine dies and once when I attempted to start it again I heard the starter make the noise like it does if you turn the key and the engine is already running. Also my transmission will occasionally jerk when it shifts gears. I took the truck back to the dealer where I bought it at and they told me that the tech drove it and the shop manager drove it too and they could not reproduce the problem. I am still having this problem, I would hate to have the problem continue after the warranty expires and then I am stuck with a huge bill to fix it.
