Description of the problem | 01 june 2015 driving on interstate 10 from beaumont texas i entered a heavy rain storm, traffic slowed down to about 50 m. P. H. In a 70 m. P. H. Speed zone. I passed a tractor trailer, when the mist from the truck and the rain hit my vehicle, my engine lost power. I removed my foot from the gas, after a few hundred yards the power came back but my engine light was on. The problem happened 4 or 5 times thru louisiana and into florida. I took the vehicle back to the dealer palm bay ford with 3,000 mile since new they couldn't duplicate the problem so i was told there wasn't a problem. 17 sept. 2015 with 12826 miles i returned to palm bay ford again, after returning from west virgina in another heavy rain storm the same thing happened, the engine lost power i was told the same thing they couldn't find a problem so no problem exist. This is a safety concern and needs to be addressed. |
