Description of the problem	I had read about this issue but thought i was one of the lucky ones that didn't have a issue. However at about 11,500 miles driving in a rainy humid day on the highway i got in a spot where i had a rig going about 30mph and i was doing about 60mph having more than enough time to pass safely before the other rig coming up in the passing lane i decided to go around.. As soon as i pushed the pedal to the floor and got in the passing lane the truck lost power,,, shuddered badly and i almost couldn't get around the rig that was only doing 30! After getting by i decided to try to get off the road and again i was successful but not without the anxiety on thinking the rig coming up would not be able to slow down enough to allow me to get off the road without pushing me off. So far there have been no known accidents but again if the conditions are right for an accident to happen could be as simple as passing on a foggy night and the person coming up on you at 70 never saw the f150 ecoboost sitting in the passing lane doing 45 trying to get it off the side of the road passing at the top of a hill with nowhere to pull off to the right as going down the hill with a 70 mph tractor trailer driver doing his best to shut down his rig trying to avoid a jack knife due to a f150 ecoboost doing 40 mph with no where to pull off! So any of you that think this isn't a big problem waiting to happen then i suggest one thing.... Hope,,, pray,,,, that you never come up on a ecoboost passing a rig and find yourself between a f150 losing 30 mph and trying to get off the road, then you,, followed by a rig doing 70 mph on your bumper in the passing lane!!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
