Ford F-150 Fuel System, Gasoline Safety Report | Jan 02, 2013
Reported on Jan 02, 2013
| THIS VEHICLE STALLED OUT WHILE PASSING ANOTHER MOTORIST A FEW DAYS AFTER WE PURCHASED IT. WE RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND WE WERE TOLD BY THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THE TRUCK HAD A RECALL ON THE INTER COOLER SYSTEM. WE WERE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS OCCURRING WITH THIS MOTOR PRIOR TO PURCHASING. THE INTER COOLER WAS REPLACED SEVERAL MONTHS LATER AND THE VEHICLE STILL STALLS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES WITHOUT WARNING. WE WERE TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT NO CODES ARE SHOWING UP ON THE TRUCK. THE STALLING INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED 10 TIMES DURING VARIOUS DRIVING AND WEATHER CONDITIONS. WE WERE TOLD BY DEALERSHIP WE WOULD JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT . I NO LONGER ALLOW MY CHILDREN TO RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AND I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN A HEAD ON COLLISION DUE TO THIS PROBLEM WHEN THE VEHICLE DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. *TR | |
