NHTSA Complaint #11187326 — 2011 FORD F-150

WHILE DRIVING THE ORANGE WRENCH APPEARS IN THE DASH BOARD. THE POWER IS SHUT DOWN AND THE ENGINE RUNS REAL ROUGH LIKE IT ONLY A 2 CYLINDERS. BUT, THERE IS NO POWER AND THE GAS PEDAL DOESN'T ACCELERATE THE TRUCK. THE MOTOR IS RUNNING, THO ROUGH, BUT THERE IS NO POWER AT ALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES TO ME IN THE PAST 8 MONTHS WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES, THEN RESTART THE TRUCK AND IT RUNS AGAIN. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FORD TWICE, LEAVING WITH THEM FOR 8 HOURS BUT THEY CAN'T FIND ANY INFO ON THE TRUCK COMPUTER TO SHOW ANY PROBLEMS. I HAVE ALSO TAKEN IT TO 2 DIFFERENT MECHANICS BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND AND PROBLEM LOGGED INTO THE COMPUTER. FORD SERVICE MANAGER SAID HE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM EVEN THO I TOLD HI THE FORD FORUM BOARD LIST THIS PROBLEM FROM OTHER TRUCK OWNERS. THE BOARD LISTS THE PROBLEM EITHER FROM THE THROTTLE BODY OR THE THROTTLE SENSOR BUT FORD AGAIN STATES THEY ARE UNAWARE OF THIS ISSUE. LOSING POWER AND STALLING IN TRAFFIC COULD BE A REAL SERIOUS ISSUE AND CAUSE SOMEONE TO GET KILLED!!
