Consumer Description
Had to stop urgently, and my truck shut off. I had to shift it into park to get it started again. Was in the middle of a 4 lane section of route one traveling with traffic at the time. I was a sitting duck until I could figure out what happened. (I’m a mechanic, if the average person was dealing with this I don’t know if they would have been able to get moving as quickly.) It acted like the torque converter stayed locked while I came to a complete stop stopping the engine at the same time. No shuddering or anything obvious. Engine wasn’t running when I came to a stop. i only noticed because it was abnormally quiet and didn’t move when I stepped on the throttle. I’ve owned this truck since the end of July 2025, it was a brand new left over 2024, currently has around 8,500 miles on it)
