NHTSA Complaint #10354194 — 2002 HOLIDAY RAMBLER VACATIONER

2002 HOLIDAY RAMBLER M/H WITH A VORTEC 8.1 LITER GM ENGINE THIS VEHICLE GVRW IS 22,000 LBS. THIS VEHICLE WILL STALL AT FREEWAY SPEEDS OF 55-70 MPH AND ACT AS IF IT IS GETTING NO FUEL, WHEN THAT HAPPENS THERE IS NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. MANY REPORTS ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THE SAME PROBLEM STATE THE PROBLEM IS THE CRANK SHAFT SENSER THAT TELLS THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM WHEN TO SEND FUEL TO THE CILINDERS. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED ONE DAY WHILE EXITING AN INTERSTATE OFF RAMP IN A WINDING CURVE. IMAGINE TRYING TO ROUND A CURVE AT 20 MPH IN A 22,000 LB VEHICLE WITH NOT POWER STEARING OR POWER BRAKES, AND A BIG DROP OFF, IS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CURVE. IT TOOK ALL THE STRENGH I HAVE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE TRACKING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AND I' AM A 5'10 210 POUND MAN. IF MY WIFE HAD BEEN DRIVING THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT. FROM THE NUMBER OF LIKE REPORTS ON THE INTERNET IT IS CLEAR THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT WITH THIS ENGINE IN THE PICK-UPS, IF THIS RESULTS IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE I CAN CORRECT IT, I WILL BE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO SUE! *TR
