 Description of the problemWas driving my 2006 f-150 over a mountain pass in canada. There was compact snow and ice on the roadway and i was traveling with other vehicles around me at approximately 40 mph. The vehicles ahead of me began to brake, i as well tried to brake only to find my truck had lost power and was no longer running. I had lost power to my brakes and steering. This caused my truck to begin sliding on the snow and ice and i was unable to control my vehicle. The cars around me were slowing and stopping and i could not. I began to fish tail in both directions while trying desperately to control my truck with no brakes or power steering, i eventually did a complete 360 degree spin and somehow managed to get the truck under control with out rolling over and into the ditch or smashing into the other vehicles around me. When i came to a stop my truck was not running and the dash lights were on. I placed the transmission into drive and restarted the truck without issue and continued on without issue. This is the second time this has happened with this truck, the first time i was on a residential street and i was able to just coast to a stop and restarted the truck. This last incident on the mountain pass has confirmed to me that i will not own another ford as i have researched this problem to find that this is a common issue with ford trucks. I am certain this has caused major accidents if not deaths and the fact there are no error codes left behind from the events to verify this has happened we may never know. The fact it has happened to me twice and once only a miracle a serious accident didn't occur i am done with the ford motor company.
