Truck check engine light came on and started to blink. The truck would shake when trying to accelerate. Pulled over, turned truck off and the light went off. When started back up it was gone. A few days later the truck did the same thing, but the light did not go off. It remained on, when accelerating the truck began to shake. When I took to the dealer, they mentioned they this truck had a check engine light on when they received, they replaced the ignition coils (under warranty) before purchasing. It’s believed the coils may have gone again. The truck is currently at the dealers getting repaired. For a brand new truck, the coils have already needed to be replaced by dealer.
