   Air suspension has failed multiple times. The latest making it impossible to drive. Traction control also goes out with the air suspension, it's extremely difficult to maintain control on even the smoothest roads because every little bump jars the whole truck. The truck has been in the shop and they just keep finding issues that shouldn't even affect the suspension, like the heated steering wheel and tire sensors that have the suspension suspended. Warning messages that pop…

    Air suspension will randomly deflate on one side of the vehicle making steering difficult at highway speeds. Hitting a bump or discontinuity in the road while the frame is sitting on the bump-stops (when suspension is deflated) can cause the tire to jump or skip, temporary loosing traction. It can go days or weeks without occurring, or it can happen multiple times in one trip.
