 Description of the problemRepeated problems with check engine light, reduced power, and poor gas mileage. The 2013 ford f150 xlt crew cab with 3. 5 v6 ecoboost has had repeated problems with the check engine light appearing at engine startup or while driving at city or highway speeds. The cel stays on for several days then disappears. If the check engine light is on the engine goes into limp mode with reduced power and gets extremely poor gas mileage of 11 mpg. The vehicle has been serviced by 2 different ford dealerships 7 times for the same problem. The last service took 13 days 12/20/2013-1/3/2014. A case was opened with ford on 12/14/2013 and assigned to a ford regional rep. Ford refuses to buy back the defective vehicle and asks that the truck be taken back to a ford dealership until the problem is resolved. This is a safety issue in that the driver will think there is an engine problem, brake or reduce speed and potentially cause an accident. The reduced engine power during cel is a safety risk. Copies of shop invoices and case number from ford are available upon request.
