1998 GMC S15 Jimmy truck, defective encoder motor. On 3 separate occasions during snow storms the consumer had to rely on the 2-wheel drive to navigate on the roads covered in snow and ice without the benefit of the added traction of 4-wheel drive. Once the consumer was unable to shift from 4-wheel drive back to 2-wheel drive. This past winter, the consumer lost traction and skidded out of control. The dealer replaced the wheel cover.
