Consumer Description

THE TRUCK WILL RANDOMLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, SITTING STILL, AND THEN START BACK UP WITH NO PROBLEM. THE TRUCK ISN'T REPORTING ANY CODES BUT THE ENGINE HAS RANDOMLY CUT OFF DURING OPERATION ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I HAVE READ MANY FORUMS OF OTHERS HAVING THIS ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC ON A CITY STREET AND ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT. IT OCCURRED AT SEVERAL TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND ALSO MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY EXIT. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH SERIOUS RISKS INVOLVED!
