Consumer Description

TRUCK (2002 FORD F-250 POWERSTROKE) ENGINE RANDOMLY QUITS DURING BRAKING OR LOW/NO ACCELERATION. THIS CAUSES LOSS OF POWER BRAKES AND STEERING. BRAKING AND LOW ACCELERATION OCCUR IN INTERSECTIONS FREQUENTLY I HAVE DISCOVERED. TRUCK WILL RESTART AND PROBLEM MAY OR MAY NOT RETURN IMMEDIATELY. I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP WHO SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE EVENT AND THE CODES SET BY THE PCM WERE "UNRELATED". I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. I READ ON THE INTERNET (WWW.DIESELSTOP.COM) THAT THIS SYMPTOM WAS FREQUENTLY CAUSED BY A BAD CPS SENSOR. I WENT TO AN INTERNATIONAL ENGINE (MAKER OF THE FORD POWERSTROKE) DEALER AND BOUGHT A NEW CPS WHICH RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE THE OLD PART FOR INSPECTION IF NEEDED. THIS PROBLEM IS DANGEROUS. IF PULLING MY TRAILER, LOSS OF ASSISTED BRAKES AND STEERING COULD QUICKLY BECOME CATASTROPHIC. *NM
