Consumer Description

DRIVING AT 25MPH THE VEHICLE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND WENT INTO FAILSAFE MODE, POWER STEERING ALSO DISABLED CAUSING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TRYING TO STEER THE CAR FROM TRAFFIC TO A SAFE AREA WITHOUT ASSISTED STEERING. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS AND USUALLY IN COLDER WEATHER. LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ON A MAIN HIGHWAY BUT LUCKILY I WAS ALONE WITHOUT MY FAMILY AND IN THE INSIDE LANE SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER THANKFULLY IT DIDN'T HAPPEN IN THE OVERTAKING LANE AS THERE IS NO TIME TO SAFELY CHANGE LANES WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN. SURPRISED THERE HAS BEEN NO FATALITIES DUE TO THIS AS IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 FORD TRUCKS. *TR
