Consumer Description

My vehicle has a factory feature called "Hill Decent Control". this past week I have been getting a Default Message "Hill Decent default" and the accelerator pedal stops working. This has happened in the middle of the road (in traffic) for no apparent reason, where I have to stop the vehicle, turn off the engine, then restart. I have read on line where other Ford F-150s have experienced this same issue. I contacted ford, and they said they have no Recalls or TSB's regarding this unsafe issue. I now need to find a reputable shop to diagnosis the exact cause and repair needed.
