Engine suffered internal mechanical failure. I had the failed engine replaced so it is no longer in my position. My wife was driving and was nearly rear-ended on a major highway at around 55mph. Without warning, the truck stalled then completely stopped. she was able to get it running for a short period in order to go down an off ramp. Then it would not restart. I had the truck towed to the dealer and the diagnosing mechanic described it as an internal mechanical failure, most likely a rod bearing failure. The dealership service manager discouraged me for having the engine full diagnosed because of the cost. Failure occurred without warning. Once the truck stalled, all warning lights began to flash.
