Consumer Description

AS I WAS PASSING A SLOW MOVING TRACTOR TRAILER IN MY BRAND NEW 2013 FORD F-150 LIMITED V6 ECOBOOST WITH ONLY 345 MILES ON IT, ON A TWO LANE HWY IN LIGHT RAIN WELL INTO THE PASS THE VEHICLE JUST LOST POWER ALMOST CAUSING ME TO HAVE A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH AN ONCOMING VEHICLE. AFTER TALKING TO ONE OF MY FRIENDS WHO WORKS AT A FORD DEALER TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THE FORD ECOBOOST ENGINE. I TOOK IT THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE AGENT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT THE FORD ENGINEERS ARE WORKING ON A FIX BUT HAVEN'T FOUND ONE AS OF YET. HOW CAN I TRUST THIS VEHICLE TO GET ME WERE I AM GOING SAFELY. *TR
