General Motors will temporarily stop shipping some 2004 full-size pickup trucks, SUVs and vans because of a problem that could cause transmissions to fail, The Detroit News reported.

The company also asked dealers not to sell or deliver the trucks to customers.

The transmissions, produced at GM's Willow Run transmission plant, could fail because of a faulty pump that may prevent lubrication from reaching overdrive gearset bearings, a GM spokeswoman told the News.

About 25,000 vehicles may be affected. Of those, 8,000 have been delivered to customers and another 1,700 are in transit between assembly plants and dealers. The company believes only about 2,000 vehicles actually have the problem, which does not pose a safety issue, the GM spokeswoman said.


Will it happen to the rest of their lineup ?

 

Oh, boy.........Hell hath no fury like an F-150 or a Silverado junkie who can't get his truck.
They are far and away the two most loyal vehicle owner groups in the industry....no other group is even close.
