Consumer Description

THE PROBLEM IS CALLED DEAD PEDAL. WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL YOU GET NO RESPONSE AT ALL UNTIL YOU LET OFF THEN THE TRUCK LUNGES FORWARD USUALLY LEAVING HALFWAY IN A INTERSECTION. HAPPENED ON 6-26-03 AGAIN, LEAVING ME IN INTERSECTION WITH SEMI APPROACHING AND VEHICLE PULLED UP BEHIND ME, FORTUNATELY THE SEMI HAD ROOM TO STOP. DEALER HAS TRIED TO FIX THIS BUT HAS NO IDEA WHATS CAUSING THIS. AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS ON FORDTRUCKS.COM/FORUMS I FOUND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM.
