Well I brought the truck in early, and boy was that fun... The dealer tried to tell me that the belt/alternator squeak was normal, and it's caused by the alternator taking extra load due to charging the battery back up...right. Anyway, he basically said it was normal, and there was nothing they could do about it. That was completely unsat. He said they weren't even authorized to change the belt out, the truck has 600 miles on it!!! Anyway, I promptly decided to take another route, I called the warranty 1800 number, talked to a supervisor. What do you know, they are going to change my belt out, and see if that fixes it. By the way, they fixed the popping in the seat, but the thud in the dashboard still is going off intermittantly at low speeds. Belt first, little stuff second.
