Consumer Description

THERE WERE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE INTERSTATE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK STARTED SHAKING REAL BAD, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. AT THIS POINT THE VEHICLE BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO STEER AND THE BRAKES WERE NEARLY USELESS. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP. I GOT THE TRUCK CRANKED BACK UP AND STARTED DOWN THE ROAD AGAIN WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED ABOUT 1/4 MILE DOWN THE ROAD. AT THIS POINT I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED BACK TO MY HOUSE TO TRY AND FIND THE PROBLEM. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR WAS BAD AND IT WAS REPLACED THE NEXT DAY WITH A NEW ONE. AFTER IT WAS REPLACED THE TRUCK RAN FINE AND HAS SINCE. THE OLD (BAD) SENSOR IS STILL AVAILABLE. *NM
