Consumer Description

MY TWO CHILDREN AND I WERE DRIVING UP HWY 75 NORTH FROM MACON WHEN WE ACCELERATED TO THE NEXT LANE. THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 SO WE WERE JUST GOING TO PASS IN AT A NORMAL RATE WHEN THE ENGINE JUST QUITS AND THE WHOLE CAR STARTS TO SHUDDER. NOW I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN AT 19,000 MILES AND TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS WAS ONLY ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. WENT IN TODAY BEFORE I READ ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS 3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINE AND THE SIMILAR PROBLEMS I EXPERIENCED. IT WAS RAINING ON WHEN WE HAD THIS HAPPEN BUT IT OCCURRED BEFORE WITH NO RAIN. AS THE TRUCK STOPPED AND SHUDDERED WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO GET TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND DID NOT GET HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THERE ARE SIX LANES OF TRAFFIC IN THIS AREA. SURPRISED TODAY WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW OF THE PROBLEMS OR HAVE EVER HEARD OF IT. ????? SO BASED ON WHAT I HAVE READ I CALLED BACK ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY HAVE HAD ISSUES. *TR
