AFTER HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE RIGHT REAR LEAF SPRING MOUNTING BRACKET BROKE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION AT A LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE LEAF SPRING ITSELF WAS ALSO CRACKED. FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE SAME TO BE TRUE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRUCK AS WELL. IT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE RIGHT REAR SHOCK, WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE FRAME, WAS COMPLETELY CORRODED OFF. IT WAS WHILE UNDER THE TRUCK INVESTIGATING THE SUSPENSION ISSUES THAT IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE ENTIRE BRAKE LINE SYSTEM WAS SEVERELY CORRODED. I FELT FORTUNATE THAT THIS WAS DISCOVERED BEFORE A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OCCURRED. IT WAS ALSO NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE UNDER CARRIAGE/FRAME WAS SEVERELY CORRODED. WHEN ASKED IF THIS WAS NORMAL, THE CHEVY MECHANIC STATED THAT THEY SEE THIS ALL THE TIME ON THE GM TRUCKS THEY SERVICE. ALTHOUGH THIS SURVEY IS FOR THE BRAKE LINES I FEEL THAT THE CORROSION ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRAME IS JUST AS SEVERE AN ISSUE AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 HD. THE VEHICLE HAD JUST BEEN INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT WHEELS BEGAN TO DETACH FROM THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE HUB AND WHEEL BEARING FAILING. THE DEALER STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE CONTACT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BECAUSE HE TRAVELS DOWN A STEEP 600 FOOT HILL AND FEARS A CRASH COULD OCCUR. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.
WELD ATTACHING RIGHT UPPER CONTROL ARM MOUNTS TO FRAME CRACKED COMPLETELY THROUGH. I AM ORIGINAL OWNER. VEHICLE NEVER IN CRASH OR MODIFIED IN ANY WAY. DISCOVERED WHILE SEARCHING FOR CAUSE OF SUDDEN PLAY IN STEERING. NOT YET REPAIRED. THIS DEFECT COULD LEAD TO COMPLETE FAILURE OF RIGHT FRONT SUSPENSION AND STEERING. *NM

THE VEHICLE OFTEN TIMES VIBRATES IN THE SPEED RANGE FROM 10 MPH TO 70 MPH. WITHIN THE TIMES THE VEHICLE IS VIBRATING IN THE SPEED RANGE OF 50-70, OCCASIONALLY THE VEHICLE WILL JUMP WITHIN THE LANE, ON THE ORDER OF QUARTER OR HALVES OF A FOOT. TOWING GENERALLY MINIMIZES THE VIBRATION; HOWEVER NOW, STEERING GETS MORE EMPHASIZED AND SLOPPY, WITH A LESS IN CONTROL FEELING. I HAVE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE DONE THEIR BEST TO MINIMIZE THE VIBRATION BY MAKING MINOR/SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE VEHICLE, YET THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I HAVE SUSPECTED THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL, FRONT SPRINGS, TIRES, AND SUSPENSION, BUT I AM NOT SURE WHAT COMPONENT OR COMBINATION OF COMPONENTS ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM.*AK

3EA06016 · Crank Position Sensor Failure - Stall
Opened Sep 14, 2006 · Closed Nov 9, 2007
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Engine And Engine Cooling; Engine And Engine Cooling:engine
IN A LETTER DATED NOVEMBER 7, 2007, GENERAL MOTORS (GM) REPORTED TO THE OFFICE OF DEFECTS INVESTIGATION (ODI) THAT IT WILL CONDUCT A SAFETY RECALL (07V-521) TO REPLACE THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR (CKP) IN APPROXIMATELY 12,000 MODEL YEAR (MY) 2001 CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND GMC SIERRA VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 8.1 LITER ENGINES MANUFACTURED ON OR BEFORE NOVEMBER 15, 2000.ACCORDING TO GM, THE CKP CAN FAIL INTERMITTENTLY OR PERMANENTLY.A PERMANENT CKP FAILURE WOULD RESULT IN AN ENGINE STALL WITHOUT RESTART.AN INTERMITTENT CKP FAILURE COULD CAUSE THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE, THE VEHICLE TO RUN ROUGH OR THE ENGINE TO STALL BUT ALLOWS RESTART.AS A REMEDY, AN IMPROVED CKP WILL BE INSTALLED IN THE SUBJECT VEHICLES.THE RECALL CAMPAIGN WILL START IN DECEMBER 2007. DURING THE PRELIMINARY EVALUATION (PE06-016), AND THIS EA INVESTIGATION, GM AND ODI INDEPENDENTLY CONDUCTED DETAILED REVIEWS OF CERTAIN FIELD DATA TO UNDERSTAND THE NATURE AND RATE OF SUBJECT VEHICLE STALLING DUE TO CKP FAILURES.GM AND ODI REVIEWED GM'S WARRANTY CLAIMS FOR THE CKP WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF ASCERTAINING AN ESTIMATE OF THOSE CLAIMS REPRESENTING AN ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING.THE CKP WARRANTY CLAIMS WITHOUT VERBATIM TEXT WERE THE LARGEST SEGMENT OF WARRANTY CLAIMS.USING THOSE CLAIMS, GM SURVEYED VEHICLE OWNERS TO GATHER ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO DETERMINE IF THE CLAIM WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A STALL WHILE DRIVING EVENT.BASED ON THE SURVEY, GM ESTIMATED THAT APPROXIMATELY 49% OF ALL WARRANTY REPAIRS FOR THE CKP INVOLVED A STALL WHILE DRIVING.ODI?S REVIEW OF GM'S SURVEY DATA PRODUCED A HIGHER ESTIMATE (71%) FOR STALL WHILE DRIVING.GM FURTHER ESTIMATED THE RATE OF STALL WHILE DRIVING FOR THE SUBJECT VEHICLES OVER TIME.IT ESTIMATED STALLING WHILE DRIVING RATES OF 1.6%, 4.6% AND 8.9% AT 1, 3 AND 6 YEARS IN SERVICE RESPECTIVELY.ODI'S REVIEW OF THE GM'S SURVEY DATA FINDS HIGHER ESTIMATED STALL WHILE DRIVING RATES OF 2.2%, 6.8% AND 13% AT 1, 3 AND 6 YEARS IN SERVICE RESPECTIVELY. ODI ALSO CONDUCTED A SURVEY OF VEHICLE OWNERS USING CONSUMER COMPLAINTS REPORTED TO BOTH ODI AND GM.THE OBJECTIVE WAS TO ASCERTAIN THE POTENTIAL SAFETY CONSEQUENCES OF AN ENGINE STALL DUE TO THE ALLEGED DEFECT.WITH RESPECT TO THE ABILITY TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER A STALL, 11% REPORTED IMMEDIATE RESTART, 69% REPORTED DELAYED RESTART AND 20% REPORTED NO RESTART.OVER HALF NOTED AT LEAST ONE ENGINE STALL INCIDENT AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 40MPH. ABOUT ONE-THIRD NOTED THE VEHICLE WAS STRANDED EITHER PARTIALLY OR FULLY IN A LANE OF TRAFFIC AFTER THE ENGINE STALL.ALL OF THE CONSUMERS SURVEYED NOTED MULTIPLE STALLING EVENTS PRIOR TO PROPER DIAGNOSIS AND REPLACEMENT OF THE CKP.BASED ON GM'S DECISION TO CONDUCT A SAFETY RECALL, THIS INVESTIGATION IS CLOSED.
