One problem related to engine stall has been reported for the 2001 Chevrolet 2500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
My 2001 chevy silverado 2500hd with the 8. 1 engine will stall at anytime. It has happened when sitting idle, taking off from a light, and I've even had it happen doing 50 mph. I refuse to let someone borrow my truck because I'm afraid they will panic and get in an accident. It is especially dangerous since you lose power steering and basically have no control of the vehicle. Sometimes I can drive for 50 miles and not have a problem and other times it will stall twice in 30 minutes. So there seems to be no rhyme or reason. I do not understand why there has not been a recall issued for this problem.
