Consumer Description

STARTING EARLY MARCH 2007, MY 2001 CHEVROLET 2500HD, 8.1L TRUCK BEGAN TO STALL IN MANY AND DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES. I WAS FIRST STOPPED AT A LIGHT ON A BUSINESS TRIP THEN BEGAN TO GO AND SHORTLY AFTER THE ENGINE DIED AND VARIOUS LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH AND SYSTEM WARNING BOX. FROM THAT POINT IT HAS CONTINUED TO STALL AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND DIFFERENT TIMES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IT HAS RESTARTED EACH TIME, SOMETIMES AFTER JUST A MINUTE AND SOMETIMES UP TO 5 OR SO MINUTES. TO DATE IT HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED THE CAUSE AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME HOW TO FIX IT. THIS IS DEEPLY TROUBLING DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY WIFE DRIVES IT A LOT AND CARRIES MY THREE CHILDREN WITH HER AND IT HAS CONTINUED TO STOP ON MAJOR ROADS, RURAL ROADS, AND JUST ANYWHERE IT DECIDES. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED THOROUGHLY!!! *JB
