| Description of the problem | I purchased a 2013 ford 150 supercrew cab 4x4 with the 3. 5l v6 motor 4 weeks ago. All has been well until the first rain last week. I was on the freeway behind a slow vehicle, i went to pass they vehicle ahead of me on a four lane freeway, and my truck stumbled and lost power instantly as i put my foot down. I had myself, wife, and two children 1 and 2. 5 in the truck. It was very scary. The check engine light was on and with no power as safely as i could i moved back into the slow lane of traffic and off the freeway around other passing vehicles. I cannot believe this. I have 2,400 miles on the vehicle. I turned it off. Restarted and no check engine light. It ran fine, i scaredly pulled back on freeway and went 50 mph to my destination. I reported issue to ford and took truck in. No issue is shown and vehicle is running fine. They kept my vehicle overnight to diagnose no issue. Help! Please! |
