| I bought the truck used and had the engine rebuilt due to low compression, oil consumption and low fuel mileage. the truck runs fine, but when it gets hot it has a tendency to stall and will not restart for quite a while. i was in omaha and stopped, the vehicle stalled and would not restart, over the radio came a severe thunderstorm warning, with my family with me there was no place i could take them. there was hail but and luckily no hail.. i left my family and went to get our other vehicle and left the truck. . i am currently overseas in kosovo, so i can not immediately return the vehicle to a dealer at this time. is there a time limit on this recall?*ak | |||
