Description of the problem | Well at first my 2001 f-150 superscript at 55000 miles started to lag, when i would press the gas it would take a long time to pick up speed or change gears. Then one day i was driving home from work going about 55 mph when i hear a loud pop, i let go of the gas pedal because it really scared me i had to regain control of my vehicle once i did i tried pressing on the gas and it wouldn't go anywhere so i decided to pull over and have to towed to a ford dealership, it was there that they told me it was going to cost me 2500 hundred dollars to fix. Now i have to wait two weeks until it gets repaired. *jb |
