NHTSA Complaint #10662899 — 2011 FORD F-150

I ACCELERATED FROM A STOP AND THE ENGINE LOST POWER AND WENT TO IDLE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON STEADY AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FROM IDLE. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST IDLE. AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT 1/2 MILE THE ENGINE AGAIN LOST POWER. I AGAIN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE TO TRAVEL HOME (APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES). ALL THE WHILE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON STEADY. A SIMILAR EVENT OCCURRED WHILE TOWING A 30 FOOT TRAVEL TRAILER WHILE ON THE I-80 FREEWAY NEAR RAWLINGS WYO.IN JUNE, 2014, ALTHOUGH THAT TIME THE ENGINE SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ON AND OFF. AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY THE LIGHT STOPPED FLASHING AND I WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY WITHOUT HAVING TO RESTART THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE SHUDDER HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE AND HAS BEEN REPORTED TO MY FORD DEALER (MISSION VALLEY FORD TRUCK IN SAN JOSE, CA). THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE OR CAPTURE ANY COMPUTER DEFECT CODES AFTER DOING A COMPUTER SCAN. *TR
