Consumer Description

After driving on an interstate or four lane road for a while (cold weather) when I pull off an exit and start to accelerate the truck has no power and the check engine light is on. The dealer tells me that the engine goes into a safety mode so that it is not doing any damage to the engine. I have to safely pull over and shut truck off and it must reset computer. My problem is you do not know there is no power until you pull out on the road that may have 55 mph traffic coming and there is no power to accelerate. I have had this happen four- five times and had in for repairs three time hoping truck is fixed. Dealer says they have adjusted something. First happen 2/2023 after having truck for a few weeks.
