Oldsmobile Silhouette stalling problems

Filed Apr 18, 2017 · 47,000 miles · FL

My 2002 oldsmobile silhouette completely shuts down while driving. It doesn't matter if I'm going 30mph or 65mph. Everything stops. This is a scary dangerous situation while highway driving! The car is otherwise perfect and has 47k miles. I brought it to the dealer last november, and was told they don't know what it is. I contacted gm three weeks ago, and now it's back at the dealer. Help, please

Reference investigation pe 11-014. This issue is not limited to 2005-2007 gm suvs. On 2/26/11, my 2003 oldsmobile silhouette stalled on interstate I-75. I was able to coast to the shoulder, but it was a dangerous situation in the dark, with family & kids in the car, with icy, snowy roads. The fuel level reading indicated more fuel availability than what was actually in the fuel tank. The fuel gauge will showed between 1/16 and 1/8 of a tank, and there was not a low fuel warning light. I had to call for roadside assistance. After the car had been stalled for a while, the low fuel warning light activated - so road service first tried putting fuel in the vehicle. With fuel added to the vehicle, it started right up and I was able to refuel the vehicle at the next exit. The vehicle has about 100,000 mile, and is in very good condition - this defect should not be happening at this point in the vehicle's life. A dealer service garage verified that the fuel level gauge is defective, and it would cost about $425 to repair.

The consumer stated the intake manifold gasket failed without warning. As a result the transmission fluid and oil began to mix together, which caused the engine to stall. Please provide additional information.

While driving down the highway at about 45 MPH, the vehicle lost all power and stalled. Had to manuver the vehicle to the shoulder with out power steering and power brakes. Once vehicle was restarted the idle was very sparatic. When reved to ensure enough RPM's to alternator to charge battery (in case that was the problem), fuel shut off occured at 3500 RPM and would resume when RPM's fell below 3000.

This vehicle repeatedly stalls and kicks out or it won't start at all. When it does start, the vehicle chugs and shuts off, also there were electrical problems with the power sliding door and the front brakes were replaced.*jb
