Description of the problem	Driving on highway, began to pass a semi truck. Engine began to shake and shudder and then power loss. Had to make sudden brake to avoid head on collision with oncoming car. Engine light is on and ford has told me that they did not have an immediate fix to the problem. Have since been told that there is a moisture problem in the turbo coolers. They do not have parts to fix and do not have a fix date. They told me to keep driving the truck but i am afraid that the motor will cut out and cause a crash that could be fatal. The dealership wont give me another truck to drive in the mean time. I do not have extra vehicles to leave it parked until they find a fix. I am fearful of driving the truck as it is and ford cant fix it.
