Pontiac Grand Prix Engine And Engine Cooling Safety Report | Oct 20, 2008
Reported on Oct 20, 2008
| MY 2001 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GTP HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR STALLING AND DYING WITHOUT WARNING. IT IS VERY RANDOM. TYPICALLY, THE CAR HESITATES/STALLS THEN THE TCS OFF LIGHT COMES ON AND THE RPM METER HITS 0. I HAVE RESEARCHED MANY FORUMS ONLINE THAT REVEAL THAT MANY OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN HOOKED UP TO THE COMPUTER, IT REVEALS THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY. IT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING THAT SO MANY OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITHOUT ANY RELIEF FROM THE MANUFACTURER. *TR | |
