Description of the problem	Ford f150 2012 ecoboost ext cab 4x4 xlt after driving for several hours and stopping at a rest area i began to reenter the interstate. As i accelerated on the onramp traffic was moderate so i pressed on the accelerator even harder. The truck was in 5th gear and downshifted to 4th. The truck began to shutter and loose power. At this point i panicked and pushed the accelerator even harder. The truck downshifted into 3rd gear at which point it lost all power. All that i could do was let out at this point and hope to regain power. Fortunately traffic had moved over by the time i had made it to the end of the onramp at which point the truck had a clear and definitive miss and very little power. The truck slowly accelerated up to 60 mph and continued to miss for another quarter mile. After arriving at my parents home 5 hours later without another incident of full loss of power i dropped my wife off to get her car. As i pulled out the driveway only minutes later i punched the accelerator to see if the truck would do it again. The truck fell on its face. I could have got out and ran faster. Once again is missed for a quarter mile and cleared up. Today, i had to make a quick trip into town to pick up something for my wife. Again i punched the accelerator and the truck fell on its face and had no power. This time the check engine light came on and has stayed on ever since. Thankfully i have not been involved in an accident as of yet. These trucks need to be recalled before someone is killed!!!

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.
