| Description of the problem | While accelerating on a hill, the engine would miss, appear to be trying to stall, and black smoke would come out of the tail pipe. The dealer had to replace the icp. Since these symptoms are similar to those described in recall #05s34, i thought my truck should be included. It wasn't and i had to pay a $100 deductible to have it repaired. The service rep said they had several of these same problems on other trucks. *nm |
