Consumer Description

MY TRUCK HAS 15,000 MILES ON IT. THE ACCELERATION WILL RUN AWAY FREQUENTLY (PRESS THE PEDAL AND THERE IS A SEVERE LAG AND LACK OF POWER). THERE WILL BE RANDOM ENGINE NOISE WHEN DECELERATING AROUND 45 MILES PER HOUR. ALSO, ACCELERATION WILL BE ROUGH WHEN GOING FROM 20-30 MILES PER HOUR JUST BEFORE THE IT SHIFTS INTO A HIGHER GEAR. I TOOK THIS TO THE FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO ERROR CODES ON THE TRUCKS COMPUTER SYSTEM. ALSO, THE STEERING WILL BE STIFF OR UNALIGNED AT RANDOM TIMES. PLEASE ASSIST IN GETTING THESE ISSUES CORRECTED.
