Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON A TWO LANE ROAD WITH CONCRETE BARRIERS, MY FORD TRUCK EQUIPPED WITH A 7.3L POWERSTROKE DIESEL ENGINE, SUDDENLY QUIT, CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO COAST TO A STOP WITH NO ENGINE POWER. LUCKILY, I HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO TAKE A OFF-RAMP AND GET OFF THE ROAD. BUT THIS SUDDEN FAILURE OF THE CAM POSITION SENSOR OR CPS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. FAILURE OF THIS PART IS COMMON ON POWERSTROKES AND IT SHUTS OFF ALL FUEL TO THE ENGINE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR
