Consumer Description

Truck exhibits an intermittent lack of engine RPM when coming to a stop while towing. Engine actually dies at stop sign upon exiting interstate. will start and die repeatably until accelerator is depressed slightly, and RPMs are kept to 1,000 or more. Was not a serious problem until I got caught in bumper-to-bumper traffic on I25 north out of Denver. I could only operate with left foot braking and right foot keeping RPM above 1K. Three days at dealer with no luck. I have discovered TSB 18-2249 and 22-2264 that addresses problem to 2018 and 2019 but no mention about my 2016 F150 2.7L.
