| Description of the problem | the issues started around mid july 2016 with about 11-12k miles. I was turning onto a side road where doing maybe 10 mph and the engine stalled, it restarted while in motion and i continued. The hill start assist and advance trac warning lights came on. Later that week it happened repeatedly. The dealership here in town (not where i bought it) looked at it for a few days, they thought it was because of, "all the after market stuff (radio etc) i had (professionally) installed". They believed it was the power converter so they replaced the converter when it came in (the 110v converter) i got my stereo stuff reconnected and kept driving it. Then the engine would not stall, but the warning lights would flash advance trac and hill assist. After a few days, it began to stall again, almost getting me hit pulling onto a road with 50mph traffic. The truck died, and wouldn't "restart" itself. So here i am parked on a two multilane 50mph roadway trying to start my truck without getting killed. It also happened again while pulling off this same road into a side street with a big ass rv coming at me, i was able to coast into the side street and then restart the truck. I brought the truck back in and they said that it might be the throttle body. So, i got my truck back today with the throttle body replaced. I go to drive away and my head unit/ display will not illuminate properly. I thought it was dimmed, but it wasn't. So i drive in a circle to bring it back and it illuminates like it should. So i leave and i drive back down the main 50 mph road and while accelerating away from a stop light there, the advance trac and hill assist lights flash on again. I take it right back and it is now there getting looked at again. |
