Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500HD WITH 8.1L ENGINE. THE TRUCK HAS STARTED STALLING (ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN) WHILE I AM DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 7 OR 8 TIMES NOW. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN OR HOW FAST YOU MAY BE GOING. SO FAR, I HAVE REPLACED BATTERY, BATTERY CABLES, HAD THE FUEL LINES SERVICED, AND HAD THE FUEL INJECTORS CLEANED. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS THE ISSUE AS IS ON MANY OF THESE TRUCKS. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2001 TRUCKS FOR THIS ISSUE BUT NOT ON THE 2002 TRUCKS FOR SOME REASON. COSTLY TO FIX THIS ISSUE. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 67,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
