what to do???

newbie here. Im sure this may have been covered here before. I didnt find anything yet. I just want my truck fixed.
took my truck in 1/07 7600 miles for a pulley making a noise. got it back and it was lacking power and lost 5mpg. since then I have been trying to get my truck fixed. the dealership wont admit they flashed my comp. they now want me to schedule to bring it in again. is there a new flash that will help my truck? or will it make it worst?
thanks

They flashed it, and they screwed it up. I went in for the most recently flash and talked to a lot of people about it, and heard that sometimes if they don't do things in the right order or something, the flash screws stuff up.
Or they are just setting you up to spend more money, either way they did something to it. Take it somewhere else and get them to redo it.

it could have been that your truck had the original flash before the heat-flash for the injectors. because i had my truck in for failed injectors they reflashed my comput er and i lost about 4 mpg and about 40 to 50 hp. i have a tuner on it and noticed it never made the same power as before it went to the dealer for an injector problem. you have the heat flash and that the latest flash.
