Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A 50 MPH FRONTAGE ROAD AND DECELERATING TO TURN ON A SIDE STREET, THE TRUCK STALLED SUDDENLY AT THE APEX OF THE TURN, GAVE A WARNING SOUND AND A MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN STATING "LOW OIL PRESSURE". NO OTHER LIGHTS CAME ON AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR CODE WAS STORED IN THE COMPUTER. WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED I LOST POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING AND (OBVIOUSLY) ENGINE POWER. THE ENGINE RESTARTED EASILY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN NEUTRAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, SOME AT THE SAME LOCATION OR LOCATIONS WITH SIMILAR SPEED/DECELERATION/TURNING CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO RECREATE THE STALL AND THUS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED THEM 2 TIMES AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THEM ONCE. THEY ONLY OFFERED A SERIES OF PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCES LIKE CLEANING THE INTAKE MANIFOLD.
