| Description of the problem | I was driving on sr 71 north of columbus ohio in the rain when i changed lanes and tried to accelerate but the engine just started shaking and my engine light started flashing. The truck would not accelerate and started to slow down. I managed to get out of traffic and got off the highway. After sitting a few minutes i tried to get back on the highway. When i tried to accelerate the truck started shaking and would not accelerate. After a 3rd attempt the truck finally got up to speed and i made it home. My engine light is still on. I began to read forums on the ford f150 fx4 and discovered many many people are having this problem with moisture and the intercooler system.. I could've died today. This needs to be made right by ford motor company.
