| Description of the problem | I was driving along at 70 mph in the number one lane when the motor just quit. I had to change over three lanes to get to side so i would be safe. There large trucks in the number two and thee lanes which caused me concern for my safety. The crankshaft sensor was defective causing the incident. I feel there should have been a recall because the sprinter uses the same engine which has been recalled for the same reason. |
