Summary
This preliminary information communication advises the technician what to inspect if codes p0016 and/or p0017 are setting on a properly timed engine or a condition of the vehicle cranks but will not start. Technician should inspect the respective intake or exhaust camshaft reluctor to see if it has spun on the camshaft. The reluctor cannot be repositioned so the camshaft must be replaced. The new camshafts come with the reluctor already pressed on in the correct position.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 5,412 complaints in the engine category.
