Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had several engine stalls on my 1998 6.5 chevrolet diesel engine. the engine will quit as if the switch is turned off at random times and driving conditions. the danger that this poses in highway traffic can not be under stated. when the engine quits i also loose the power steering and braking making this a very dangerious situation. although i have not had a crash when this condition occurs, i have had several close calls and have read on internet web sites others that have not been so lucky. my truck is still under warranty but the dealerships are unable to fix the problem because (according to them) no error codes are received from the computer. the date listed below is the most resent failure of the engine. *ak
