ON OR ABOUT JULY 15TH 2010 I PURCHASED MY FORD F150 BRAND NEW WITH 3 MILES ON IT. NO PROBLEMS OCCURRED UNTIL DECEMBER 31ST 2010. HEADING NORTH ON A 3 LANE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK JUST "SHUT OFF"..DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. I IMMEDIATELY ATTEMPTED TO RESTART AND WOULD NOT RESTART UNTIL 3RD ATTEMPT. I LOOKED AT THE GAS GAGE, IT READ 3/4 FULL. THIS DID NOT REOCCUR UNTIL JANUARY 3RD, 2011. THE SAME AS BEFORE STALLED WITH FULL TANK OF GAS.THIRD TIME OCCURRED JANUARY 19TH, 2011 WITH MY WIFE DRIVING AND 2 MINOR CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT. THIS AGAIN HAPPENED STALLED ON HIGHWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, WITH FULL TANK OF GAS. STATE TROOPER WITH HIGHWAY PATROL HAD TO STOP TRAFFIC AND PUSH THE TRUCK TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTED THE FULL TANK OF GAS. TOWED TO FORD WHO REFUSED TO FIX THIS VEHICLE CLAIMING THAT THIS DEFECT NEEDED TO REOCCUR WITH A FLIGHT RECORDER ATTACHED TO IT, BUT FORD DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO DRIVE IT STATING"IT WAS A LIABILITY TO THEIR BUISNESS AND COULD CAUSE INJURY TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT STAFF"...THEY THEN REFUSED TO KEEP IT ANY LONGER AND DELIVERED IT TO OUR HOME WITH THE SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT STILL UNTOUCHED! *TR

MY FORD F-150 TRUCK(MILAGE,529) HAS STALLED OR LOST POWER AND STALLED 10 TIMES ON 5 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE PROBLEM STARTED ON 01-14-11. THE FIRST TWO VISITS TO THE DEALER THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE CONDITION OR FIND A CODE IN THE COMPUTER. NO MECHANICAL WORK WAS PERFORMED. ON 01-26-11 THE WRENCH APPEARED, I DROVE DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER. THE TECH FOUND TWO CONFLICTING CODES. HE E-MAILED FORD TECH CENTER WITH THE PROBLEM. ON 01-28-11 THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY. (CODE P0505) ON 02-01-11 TRUCK STALLED AGAIN, THIS TIME THEY REPLACE THE RESONATOR(PIN POINT LEAK TO THE RESONATOR HOSE CODE P0102 AT 9511 MILES. ON 02-08-11 TRUCK STALLED AT A STOP SIGN. ( NO WRENCH) ON 02-15-11 TRUCK STALLED TWICE (WRENCH SHOWED UP ) AT MILEAGE 9,525- 14 MILES SINCE THE RESONATOR WORK. ON 02-16-11 I HAD A MEETING WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE WAS VERY COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL. I GAVE THE SERVICE MANAGER A COPY OF A REPORT ON PROBLEMS FOR 2010 FORD F-150 TRUCKS. (WWW.ARFC.ORG) I UNDERSTAND THIS INFORMATION IS FROM THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (WWW.NHTSA.GOV) THIS WAY THEY CAN NOT SAY THEY NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. ON 02-16-11 TRUCK WAS RETURNED TO DEALER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION. THE TRUCK STALLS BETWEEN 10 AND 40 MPH YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO STEER THE TRUCK.ON ONE OCCASION I WAS TURNING INTO MY PROPERTY MAKING A LEFT TURN. I WAS GOING SLOW SO I WAS ABLE TO STOP BEFORE I HIT A SNOW BANK. ONCE YOU LOSE POWER STEERING THERE IS NO WAY TO STEER THE TRUCK AND THE BREAKS FADE VERY FAST. *TR

TRUCK HAS A WARNING LIGHT ON THAT LOOKS LIKE A WRENCH. TRUCK HAS BEEN STALLING WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING THE TRUCK TO LOSE ALL POWER AND STOP DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF ROAD. FORD TECH'S SAY THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND FORD REFUSES TO HELP. I AM JUST WAITING TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT SO I CAN SUE FORD FOR NOT ACTING ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE AFTER HAVING THE TRUCK IN FOR REPAIR FOUR TIMES WITH NO HELP. *TR
