| Description of the problem | My 2006 ford f150 fx4 has stalled on the highway at two different times in the last 9,000 miles. I am driving at normal speeds, with normal weather conditions, half tank of gas, and i was coasting as highway speeds slowed - as i went to hit the accelerator to speed up, i lost the ability to accelerate. First the wrench dash light came on, then i noticed steering was slightly difficult and then the battery and transmission light came on. I got the vehicle to the side of the road, but i did not lose headlights, radio, heat, or power. I turned the truck off and waited 2 minutes, then it started back up - a little difficult on the starter, but it worked. I have read numerous chat forums online with users having this same issue with 2006 v8's in the f150. What is ford doing about this? My vehicle has been meticulously maintained and cared for. From what i read this is a fuel pump control panel issue with corrosion of dissimilar metals - where is the recall? |
