Consumer Description

DRIVING DOWN RURAL ROAD, 60 MPH IN OUR 2001 FORD EXCURSION DIESEL. ENGINE JUST DIED. NO BRAKES, LIMITED STEERING. TURNS OUT TO BE A PART CALLED A CPS (CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR). ACCORDING TO MY LOCAL DEALER THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE AND WHEN THEY FAIL IT IS SUDDEN AND COMPLETE. HAD THIS OCCURRED ANYWHERE THAT WOULD HAVE REQUIRED ME TO MANEUVER AND ALL, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BAD. *JB
