| Description of the problem | Bought new in april 2010, ford xlt150. Now at 73k mi. Last two weeks. Could not start twice after filling up. Had to keep flooring vehicle to crank over. Hi performance battery is two mths old. Died at red light three times. Died at yield sign twice. Died at bank atm once. Lost steering control when engine died coming out of yield sign. Luckily hit no one. Took it to ford dealership,asked about recall notice or if others had similar problems. Negative response on both. Told them thousands of same problem posted on internet. They told me many people just post stuff. Many posters said ford dealers computers showed no problem when truck is hooked up. Taking it to an independent mechanic shop. Too dangerous to keep driving. Will injure someone and myself,or worse. Will be notifying ford. |
