Consumer Description

WHILE APPROACHING A STOP THE TRUCK GAUGES STARTED GOING CRAZY. TRUCK STALLED BUT RESTARTED WITH GAUGES STILL ACTING CRAZY. ALL GAUGES WOULD BOTTOM OUT AND COME BACK UP AND RADIO WAS TURNING ON AND OFF. REPLACED BATTERY BUT ONLY STALLING ISSUE WAS RESOLVED. TOOK TO LOCAL FORD DEALER BUT SINCE THE TRUCK ONLY DOES THIS RANDOMLY, THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. TRUCK RUNS PERFECTLY BUT GAUGES AND RADIO STILL GO ON AND OFF MAKING IT EXTREMELY ANNOYING TO DRIVE. VERY FRUSTRATING TO KNOW THAT SO MANY OTHER FORD OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT NO SOLUTION HAS BEEN OFFERED FROM FORD. *TR
