NHTSA Complaint #10779404 — 1998 CHEVROLET S10

THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALL POWER IS LOST. ALL LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL COME ON AS IF THE TRUCK WERE JUST STARTED. "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT COMES ON. SOMETIMES THE TRUCK RESTARTS AND CONTINUES WORKING AND OTHER TIMES IT STALLS COMPLETELY AS IF THE KEY WAS TURNED OFF. THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES AND IN RANDOM SITUATIONS. WE MAY BE ACCELERATING AGGRESSIVELY (MERGING INTO TRAFFIC) OR DRIVING SMOOTHLY AT SLOWER SPEEDS. IT IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH ROAD CONDITIONS, TEMPERATURE OR WHETHER WE ARE DRIVING UP OR DOWNS A HILL, ON THE FLATS, GOING STRAIGHT OR AROUND CURVES. IT MAY HAPPEN TWICE WITHIN A MILE THEN NOT AGAIN THAT DAY. ONCE IT HAS STALED COMPLETELY, STARTING THE ENGINE CAN BE DIFFICULT, LIKE IT IS NOT GETTING FUEL OR ELECTRICAL CURRENT TO THE ENGINE. FUEL FILTER HAS BEEN CHANGED WITH NO CHANGE IN SYMPTOMS. PROBLEM CODES THAT COME UP WHEN DIAGNOSED ARE AS FOLLOWS... P1632 P0341 P0335 THIS PROBLEM HAS JUST BEGUN TO SHOW ITSELF IN THE PAST 6 WEEKS, MAYBE STARTING IN EARLY SEPTEMBER, 2015. THIS IS VERY DISCONCERTING AS THIS IS MY WIFE'S COMMUTER CAR AND SHE DOES NOT FEEL SAFE IN IT AT THIS POINT.
