Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF THE 2017 FORD F250 PLATINUM WITH 107,000 BUT IN EXCELLENT SHAPE AND WELL MAINTAINED. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT WILL SHUT SHUTDOWN FOR NO REASON.I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A PROBLEM IN THE RIGHT REAR TAILLIGHT. IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS FAIRLY REGULAR. WHEN IT HAPPENS I GET MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGES. TAILLIGHT SYSTEM FAULT, BLIND SPOT SYSTEM FAULT AND THEN SAYS SEE OWNERS MANUEL. I AM WORRIED THIS MAY HAPPEN WHEN TOWING A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. I HAVE REQUEST A FORD REP LOOK AT IT IF THE SERVICE TECH CANNOT FIGURE THE ISSUE OUT.
