Consumer Description

DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE DURING WET CONDITIONS MY 2012 FORD F150 ECOBOOST STARTED TO STUMBLE AND LOOSE POWER DRASTICALLY WHILE PULLING A TRAILER. THE TRUCK WOULD ONLY DO 30 MPH AS IT SHOOK AND STUMBLED DOWN THE INTERSTATE. THIS POWER LOSS MADE IT REALLY DANGEROUS TO GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY WITHOUT OTHER CARS AND TRUCKS BEING AFFECTED. THE ONLY WAY TO RESET THE TRUCK WAS TO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME DURING WET RAINY CONDITIONS. THIS ISSUE REALLY CONCERNS ME FROM THE SAFETY OF MY WELL BEING AND OTHER FELLOW DRIVERS. FORD NEEDS TO TAKE ACTION IN FIXING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE F150 ECOBOOST TRUCKS. *TR
