I HAVE A 96 GMC 3500 WITH STALLING PROBLEMS. I ALMOST HAVE BEEN IN TWO ACCIDENTS WITH THIS PROBLEM. ONCE WAS WHEN THE STALL HAPPENED DURING A INTERSECTION AT A HIGHWAY. THE OTHER IN A PARKING LOT, I ALMOST HIT A PERSON AND TRUCK, BECAUSE WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS I LOOSE ALL BRAKES AND ALL STEERING. I AM TOLD IT IS THE PMD, I AM GOING TO GO AND SPEND $400 TOMORROW AND RELOCATE THE PMD. I WAS TOLD BY A GM DEALER IF THERE WAS A CODE TO GO BY IT POSSIBLY WOULD BE A WARRANTY ITEM. I HAVE SPENT $270 ALREADY FOR THEM TO TELL ME THAT. I THINK THAT GM NEED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND STOP BEING SO CARELESS WITH PEOPLES LIVES. *JB

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
