Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE AT ABOUT 70-75 MILES PER HOUR. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50 DEGREES. I ENCOUNTER A SLOW MOVING VEHICLE AND MOVED INTO THE LEFT HAND LANE AND TRIED TO PROMPTLY ACCELERATE TO PASS A SLOWER VEHICLE. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND GO INTO A VERY RAPID DECELERATION. THE VIOLENT VIBRATION OF THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND RAPID DECELERATION MADE CONTROL A CHALLENGE. I MOVED TO THE RIGHT HAND LANE REDUCED SPEED TO 50 MPH AND CONTINUED ON TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE VEHICLE EVALUATED. THE DEALERSHIP FOUND THAT 3 COILS FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO VIBRATE AND DECELERATE RAPIDLY. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. *TR
