| Description of the problem | My wife and duaghter were driving down i-75 when she heard a couple of chimes followed by a message to safely shut down. The truck lost all power at that point and the engine turned off by itself. She wjoshuaas lucky she was already in the right lane and was able to get off the interstate prior to anything too bad happening. I had already done some research and found ford has had an issue with the 4 egt exsensors shutting the vehicle down to protect engine. This is a very serious safety issue if you consider i could have been towing 17,000lb trailer behind me when this could happen. I strongly feel that ford needs to address the bad sensors quickly before something worse happens. My truck has had no modifications nor chips in it, sensors go bad and kills the engine. Only 34,000 miles on it. |
