Crankshaft Position Sensor Problems of Chevrolet Suburban

I have had several incidents in two weeks that nearly caused serious accidents. I would be driving at various speeds, slow and interstate driving, where the engine would suddenly lose all power and the battery light would come on. I would have to struggle to have the vehicle glide to the service lane without causing an accident. These happened all times of day and all weather conditions and caused hazardous close calls. The vehicle was through diagnostic testing by an independent mechanic found to have a defective crank position sensor. Attached for your information is a copy of the invoice which includes the diagnosis and repairs required. Reviewing NHTSA complaints this is a serious problem that appears to have happened many times in the past which needs to have a NHTSA investigation and recall. Please advise if it would help get this problem addressed if I seek legal, legislative or regulatory relief. I look forward to your response. Thank you.

My 2008 chevy Suburban with 94,000 miles stalled while in traffic travelling at about 20 mph without warning. I luckily was able to coast it to the side of the road and after letting it sit for a short time it did restart again but only to stall again after the car ran for another 5 minutes again traveling at about 20 mph. I had it towed to my dealership and have been told that my crankshaft position sensor has failed. While my VIN and year is not covered, there is an active recall on this condition (gm recall no. 06083. ). This is a very dangerous issue to have especially when traveling with small children in the car. The recall should be extended to other years who experience this issue for the safety of families.

Wife was driving on the freeway in our Suburban and the engine shut off without warning. She had to coast over 5 lanes of traffic and get into the emergency lane. Truck started after 4 attempts and worked fine for 2 more days. It then died 2 more times in one day without warning. It again started fine after 4 to 5 attempts. The crankshaft position sensor is defective and there was a recall of other 2001 models with the 8. 1l but it did not include my sequence. This part is faulty and put my wife's life in danger. They should recall all 8. 1l crankshaft sensors. This is a issue and there are tons of threads on message boards about this issue.

2002 Suburban 2500 8. 1 faulty crankshaft position sensor. Vehicle died on highway at 65 mph. Almost crashed into other vehicles. This happened a few times. The vehicle could not be diagnosed. Due to the sensor fault never being stored in the fault codes. The 2001 8. 1 has been recalled for this reason why hasn't the 2002 its the same part number? there are many complaints about this issue. I have the old part.

2001 chevy Suburban 8. 1 when driving at all speeds just dies. Starts back up 5-15mins. Really scary if your doing 75 mph in heavy traffic. I am 99% sure its the crankshaft sensor. Gm has a recall on 2001 2500 hd trucks only!!!!I found out about the cranksensor from some people online who learned the hard way . With today times people cant afford to pay big bucks for little parts. Gm needs to extend the recall to all 8. 1 l regardless of year or make. I found a web site that some boat motors are doing the same thing 8. 1 gm. Cheap if you fix it before your out on a road trip. P. S. I heard about a opening on the hump but gm line welded it up.
