Consumer Description
THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON EVERY, 750-850 MILES. WHEN THIS HAPPENS , THE TRUCKS (RPMS) GOES UP, 1200 RPMS. IF THERE IS A CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I HAVE TO PUT BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN IN THE DEALER SHIP (4) TIMES NOW. FORD HAS HAD THEIR ENGINEERS, COME OUT AND TRY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. FORD HAS EVEN REPLACED THE DASH WIRE HARNESS, AND THE TRUCK HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT THE TRUCK, CAN CAUSE A CRASH.
