Description of the problem	In june of 2018 i purchased my 2012 f150 5. 0 with 16,250 miles. I now have 40,650. Back in oct of 2020 i began having issues with the trucks engine sputtering, chugging, etc.. When accelerating in day to day to traffic. The engine would run very rough while i sat on the side of the road or in the middle of traffic waiting for the truck to "work through it" or completely die. I'd wait a few minutes, start it back up and be on my way. I can be sitting at a light, it turns green and i take off and it'll act up or even when i'm traveling down the road a car in front of me slows down to turn and after they turn i press the accelerator and it acts up. It throws no codes but i'm a sitting duck out there when this happens due to the extreme quick loss of power. In most cases of this happening i usually don't have enough momentum to get out of the way of traffic causing unsafe conditions for all. Its very random and unpredictable evident by it occurring several times in a week or not at all for several weeks. As soon as this issue began i had the throttle body replaced by my mechanic but it still continued. My mechanic even kept my truck to drive around at different times during two sperate weeks to "re-enact" the issue, but it never happened. Within a day or two of getting it back from him it would happen again. I've been to ford and if your vehicle doesn't throw a code they don't have time for you, "but if there's anything else they can do for you just let them know". This is a hassle, unsafe situation that i've been dealing with for several months now with no one able to give me any answers to fix this. Yes, i've seen and heard the list of everything it could possible be from bumper to bumper. I need a resolution because i've extinguished all other avenues.

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?
