| Description of the problem | Problem with engine losing power and detonation in cylinders during acceleration. First reported problem of engine shutter within weeks of purchase. Engine has never operated correctly. I have brought the truck to the dealer three times and they know that the cac is the problem but refuse to replace it. The last incident on sep. 20 2013 happened when entering high speed traffic and the truck completely lost power and my family and i were almost hit my oncoming traffic. I had to "limp" off to the side of the road as the truck would not operate. This eco-boost issue is going to get someone hurt or killed. |
