 Description of the problem2012 ford f-150. Consumer writes in regards to acceleration problems. *smd the consumer stated as he tried to merge into traffic on the interstate, he floored the accelerator pedal, but the engine shut down completely. He was able to get the truck off the main interstate and into the emergency lane. The engine light came on. He let the truck sit in the off position for approximately 10 minutes and then he re-started the truck. At that point, he was slowly able to accelerate while in the emergency lane, to a speed that allowed him to re-enter the interstate. All attempts to accelerate quickly failed and it would only accelerate gradually at slower then normal speeds. He continued his trip with the engine light on and at his first opportunity he took the vehicle to the dealer. The dealer returned the vehicle to the consumer saying they had fixed the problem. The truck performed well for the next year without any incidents, there were no occasions where quick acceleration was required. In october 2013, he made another trip, and the same incident happened. Then engine shut down again in december 2013. The dealer stated they made a different repair and they returned the truck to the consumer. The engine shut down again in april 2014. The dealer kept the vehicle, for two weeks, stating they were unable to find a problem. *jb
