Q: Whining noise from my truck moments later it turned off while driving
I was driving home with my window down when out of no where I heard a whining noise similar to a supercharger coming from the bottom of my truck. Moments later my truck turned off while driving and every time i was turning the key to turn it on the whining noise started for a second then stoped and sometimes my truck turned on and stalled a few seconds later (3-4 seconds).
