The vehicle registered diagnostic trouble code P0016 (Crankshaft Position–Camshaft Position Correlation, Bank 1 Sensor A).  Prior to this incident, the vehicle had undergone GM's L87 Engine Loss of Propulsion Safety Recall 25V-274 (GM Campaign N252494000). The vehicle passed the required engine inspection and was cleared to receive the prescribed oil viscosity change from 0W-20 to 0W-40. Under GM's recall service procedure, vehicles displaying P0016 during the inspection were required to be quarantined rather than proceeding with the oil-change remedy. Therefore, the completion of the prescribed remedy indicates that P0016 was not identified during the earlier recall screening.  Despite passing GM's engine inspection and receiving the recall remedy, the engine subsequently experienced a failure involving P0016 and a complete loss of propulsion. This raises significant concerns about whether GM's inspection procedures and oil viscosity remedy adequately identify and prevent engine failures in affected vehicles.  While our Yukon was disabled in traffic due to the engine stall, another motorist failed to stop and struck the vehicle from behind. The collision caused extensive damage, and the vehicle was subsequently declared a total loss.
