Description of the problem	On or about 4/21/05 i was driving my 2001 ford f-150 taking my son and nephew to school. As i made a right turn at the school my engine stalled. I lost all stering control and had just enough brake power to slow the vehicle. I put the truck in neutral and started the truck. I took it to my local ford dealer and they replaced the air intake control valve. About 2 weeks later at the exact same spot and time the engine again stalled on me. Again, i lost all stering and had just enough brakes to slow so i could put the truck in neutral and start the engine. My ford dealer is telling me they can not find the problem with it and stated i could pick the truck up and drive it if i wanted to. Not wanting to have myself or my family killed in a car crash i told them no and that they needed to fix the truck. They agreed to try and fix the truck. I understand that you may not be able to help me with this next issue but if you can i would appreciate it. While they try to find the problem with my truck they have the right to keep my truck for 30 days and i would have to rent a car. At $20 per day for 30 days that would cost me $600. I can not afford this as ford refuses to lend me a car. Thank you. Robert r. Hernandez

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
