NHTSA Complaint #10369675 — 2001 GMC SIERRA 2500

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 GMC SIERRA 2500 HD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FOR THE PAST YEAR THE VEHICLE HAD STALLED INTERMITTENTLY. THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS PRIOR TO THE STALLING, BUT THE MESSAGE CENTER AND BATTERY LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE DEALER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DETECT ANY FAILURE CODES. THE CONTACT TRIED REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP AND RELAYS, BUT THAT DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT THEN BECAME AWARE OF A RECALL FOR THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR UNDER RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER 07V521000, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THAT ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE, IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 58300.
