Since you just issued the recall on gm pickup trucks, i would like to let you know i have the same problem with my gmc savana 15-seater 2001 van. I bought the vehicle new in 2001. It now has around 56,000 miles on it. Problem: sometimes the brake light stays on, in which case the cruise control doesn't work. Sometimes the front passenger electric window doesn't work during these times. I learned about the recall from msnbc, reading the news online. Since you didn't have "internet" on your referral source choices, i said "newspaper" as being the closest thing. *jb

The rear left door will not open, the latch is broken. I own three gmc vans all of which the left rear doors will not open. *nm

Purchased 2001 gmc savanna 2500 van on 3-31-05 ( no warranty); noticed "service engine soon" light and air bag light were on. Had van serviced on 4-6-05. Mechanic cleared up all problems except the scan tool could not communicate with the air bag module. When the mechanic started the engine back up, the engine was on for approx. 5 - 10 seconds, and the passenger side air bag went off! Luckily no one was sitting there at the time. *nm

No warning failure of stanadyne pn [xxx] (gm number) or mfg #[xxx]. Vehicle is 2001 gmc van [xxx]. The fuel solenoid driver (fsd) is located on the injector pump and is used to drive the fuel system. Its failure is cause by heat or lack of cooling of the two 500 watt transistors. Failure is abrupt with out warning and causes loss of vehicle control due to stalling. After cool down vehicle can be restarted. First failure occurred 5/22/2003 at 39630 miles and was repaired under claim number 1-105619528. The second failure (of the replaced part) occurred at 65779 miles and was noted in repair ticket 1-273605803. The unit was not repaired by gm but was replaced by the owner (me). The part did not fail at dealer who only drove the vehicle 8 miles. Stalling of vehicle causes loss of control since the diesel motor drives the power steering and brakes. Very dangerous to drive. Part failure does not set any computer codes readable at dtc11 connector. Based on internet investigation using fsd failure and gm in the google search engine, many repair solutions are recommended. This is a known problem since gm issued a warranty extension, g00064d in may 2003. Original part is available. Replacement part (the second failure) is available. *jb updated 07/24/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(b)(6)
