| Description of the problem | My wife was driving a new 2010 ford f-150 with five-thousand miles on it. She was making a right turn into a driveway leading to my daughter's day care center. While in the midst of the turn, the vehicle suddenly stalled. As a result of the engine stall, the vehicle lost all power, including power steering. A vehicle descending the hill from the daycare center had to swerve around my wife to avoid a collision. We brought the vehicle into the dealer, however after having the vehicle for 17 days they had a "porter" report one "hiccup" while driving the vehicle, however they reported no error codes were tripped. They were unable to diagnose the problem so were therefore unable to make any repairs. Needless to say, my wife no longer feels confidant in driving this vehicle as she is afraid it will suddenly stall for no apparent reason thereby endangering she and our children as well as other motorists and/or pedestrians. |
