Consumer Description

THE PICKUP TRUCK KEEPS RUNNING VERY ROUGH AND LURCHING FORWARD WHILE IN DRIVE. THE TRUCK HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY DIED ON ME SEVERAL TIMES. EVEN WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE IT WILL LUNGE FORWARD AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 5 OR 6 TIME OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. THEY HAVE DONE A UPGRADE ON THE COMPUTER AND REPLACED SEVERAL VALVES/PARTS. EVERY TIME THIS MYSTERY PROBLEM KEEPS COMING BACK. IT SEEMS TO SURFACE AT IT'S WORST WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE GETS WARMER, ABOVE 50 DEGREES. FORD HAS BASICALLY BEEN NO HELP AND SEEMS TO BE STUMPED OVER THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SPENT AT LEAST $500 ON A WARRANTY ITEM THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, IT SEEMS AS IF I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE SOLVED BEFORE IT GETS WORSE AND CAUSES ACCIDENTS. *JB
