NHTSA Complaint #10513845 — 2012 FORD F-150

TRAVELING AT 60 + / - MPH AND ATTEMPTED TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS. ENGINE LOST POWER ON ACCELERATION AND SEEMED TO SPUTTER. THIS IS STRANGE AS THE GAS WAS NOT "PUNCHED" OR ANYTHING OUTSIDE OF NORMAL PASSING ACCELERATION. INITIALLY I THOUGHT I MAY BE OUT OF GAS OR SOMETHING BUT THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. I HAVE NOTED POWER LOSS TWO OTHER TIMES BUT DID NOT THINK ANYTHING OF IT AS THE ENGINE RETURNED TO NORMAL ONCE I BACKED OFF THE GAS. THE ONE DIFFERENCE THIS TIME IS THE ENGINE MADE A VERY ROUGH VIBRATION WHICH CAUSED OTHERS IN THE TRUCK TO ASK IF I WAS HAVING ENGINE TROUBLE. *TR
