| Description of the problem | While driving down the street at roughly 40 mph, my truck all of a sudden just shut off. Lost power steering and power brakes. Once off to the side of the road i tried to restart the vehicle with no luck. It continued to crank but would not start. After waiting roughly 10 minutes i tried to start it one more time and it started. I was able to get the truck home where i was able to start investigating the problem. While searching the internet, i found "tsb 15-0137" from ford as to the possible problem. To my amazement it was the exact same problem i had had. The fact that this is a known problem that causes the engine to shut down, a loss of power steering, and a loss of power brakes and it's not considered a recall, along with the fact that it could cause an electrical fire, is more than disturbing. |
