| Description of the problem | I was traveling on the highway behind a truck towing a big camper. When i got a chance to try and pass him i got over to go around him and went to accelerate and my truck lost all power (check engine light started flashing) and i had to apply brake hard to slow back down to get back behind the truck. Luckily there was not anyone behind me so i was able to get back over. I had to pull over and set and the check engine light finally went out and truck started running fine. I took my truck into ford and they say nothing is wrong with it. This is a 2013 f150 with the ecoboost 3. 5 engine with less than 11k miles. I'm afraid to even drive it now. |
