 Description of the problemWhile trying to merge into traffic i pressed the accelerator to the floor to get the truck up to the speed of traffic flow. I had no response from the engine for approx 1 to 2 seconds. This put me in a very dangerous situation as i had to get on the brakes hard to slow the vehicle on the on ramp to keep from getting hit by the faster traffic on the highway. In addition the traffic behind me had to rapidly slow down to keep from hitting me. We took the vehicle into the ford dealership on monday 30 sept 2013. This was ruidoso ford in ruidoso new mexico. They checked the vehicle and said there was no problem with it and that they knew of no other problems of this type on 2013 f-150 fx-4 pickup trucks. I am still in the talking stages with them about this problem as i feel they have made little effort to solve it and the research i have done indicates that ford motor corporation is aware of this problem. (this problem has happened to me several times since i purchased this vehicle, i thought that after the break in period, as the truck was new when purchased this problem would go away but it has not. Also this truck does not get the gas mileage that it is claimed to get.
