Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 FORD F250 7.3L POWER STROKE DIESEL. ON 10-20-06 THE CPS FAILED IN A RAINSTORM. MY WIFE (7 MONTHS PREGNANT) WAS DRIVING AND WAS NEARLY INVOLVED IN A CRASH BECAUSE WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED ALL ELECTRONICS DIED AS DID THE MOTOR. THIS RENDERED THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES USELESS. THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATALITY IF NOT TO MY WIFE BUT OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL. THE TRUCK STRANDED MY WIFE ON THE SIDE OF A COUNTRY ROAD FOR 2 HRS. WAITING FOR A TOW SERVICE. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED AND THE CPS REPLACED BEFORE THE TRUCK WOULD RESTART. *JB
