NHTSA Complaint #10667185 — 2005 FORD F-250 SD

I WAS HEADING DOWN MY STREET IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND JUST BEFORE THE STREET BENDS TO THE LEFT MY TRUCK STALLED AND I LOST MY POWER BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. DOING THE BEST I COULD I TURNED THE WHEEL JUST ENOUGH TO AVOID THE CAR PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET THEN I PROCEEDED TO RUN THROUGH MY NEIGHBOR'S WROUGHT IRON GATE AND PLASTER COMING TO REST ON THE HILL IN HIS FRONT YARD. AFTER ASSESSING THE DAMAGE, I TRIED TO START MY TRUCK TO SEE IF I COULD MOVE IT. IT STARTED AND I MOVED IT TO MY DRIVEWAY. AFTER THE REPAIRS WERE DONE AT THE BODY SHOP I THEN TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE DISCOVERED A FAULTY WIRE IN THE WIRE HARNESS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT ANY NOTICE OR SIGNS OF TROUBLE. LATER I LEARNED FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2004-2005 MODELS FOR THE WIRE HARNESS SPECIFICALLY, THAT I NEVER RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON. *TR
