 Description of the problemI was driving in my 2005 ford f-150 5. 4 when the engine shut off on its own. It was not the first time. It has happened while i'm driving in the middle of traffic. Just recently i was driving when i started to loose power, but this time started hear a loud banging coming from the engine. I drove the truck with almost no power to the mechanic. There i was told that it a cam shaft issue. As they uncovered the engine ii was told i would a new engine at the cost of $7500. As i later went online i found many people complaining about the same thing with ford 5. 4 engines. It seems to me ford knows about the problem but are not willing to stand by their problem. I have kept up with the maintanance since have been the only owner of the truck. I love the truck but i'm very disappointed with ford not taking responsibility for having engineered a bad engine. I the single provider of my family and don't have money to be throwing away on new vechical. I also believe the truck stalling out in the middle of a highway was completely dangerous and i was lucky not be hit by anyone else. Please help.
