There is some kind of formatting problem where this story (and several others in the past) has no headline or category, so when it doesn’t start with a complete sentence like this it’s hard to decipher.
I presume this is a list of recent recalls?
@douglips: Nah, its a list of recommended things to purchase
It looks like a list of recalled items to me.
The recall on the Silverado and Sierra is for a crankshaft position sensor, not the crankshaft: this device tells the computer when to fire the spark plugs. A faulty sensor will make the truck run rough: much less scary than anything that could be wrong with a crankshaft.
@kingedwin: Thats what I was going to say. Thats at least a $5000 difference in severity of repair right there.
I read that as “Bark Wrapped Candies.” Nothing like some wood to satisfy my sweet tooth.
