Description of the problem	Traveling on the interstate, little to no uphill or downhill grade, speed approximately 55, attempted to pass a tractor-trailer. Pressed hard on the accelerator pedal, and started the pass. Halfway thru the pass, passing speed 65-70 mph, my truck lost all power and started shaking violently. I backed off the accelerator, and pulled back in behind the tractor-trailer, then off to the right shoulder. I shut the engine off, opened the hood, expecting to see something bad. No visible signs of anything wrong. Started the engine, drove the rest of the way home, with no other mis-haps. However, the same thing has happened twice more, the most recent being just a few days ago, 6-10-13. Each time this has happened, it has been during an attempt to pass a slower vehicle, during a hard acceleration. I'm typically a very conservative driver, and bought this truck with this engine for both fuel economy and power to pull a trailer. On the first and third occurrence, i was on the interstate, with traffic going the same direction. The second time it happened, i was on a slight upgrade on a 2-lane road, and attempted to pass a much slower vehicle. There was traffic coming from the other direction, but there was ample time and distance to make a safe pass, as the truck in front of me was very slow. Again, halfway thru the passing attempt, i lost power, and had to back behind the truck in front of me. Fortunately, there was sufficient room for the oncoming traffic to move over to avoid the collision. I have talked to my dealer about this, and they were going to research the issue before servicing it. However, i recently saw a report on this issue on the local news station, and realized that my problem is not unique.
