Description of the problem	May 22, 2013- while driving south on i-55 and merging onto i-12, i was traveling approximately 35 mph when i gave the truck gas to accelerate into oncoming interstate traffic of 70+ mph. My truck completely went limp and i could not accelerate at all with the check engine light coming on. I was in real trouble at this point so i pulled off with one tire in the grass to avoid a serious accident and potentially being killed. Approximately 1 minute later the truck regained power and i continued to my destination with the check engine light going back off. May 23, 2013- i called ford dealership where i bought my vehicle and they explained to me that nothing was wrong if the warning light went off. Stating the system does this as an environmental precaution? May 28, 2013- i was traveling in galveston, tx at 25 mph when the check engine light came on again. I did attempt to give it gas to see if the same problem was occurring and it once again would not respond with the check engine light staying on permanently this time. I parked my truck for work until june 11, 2013. I took a picture of my dash to document the warning light. Called ford dealership @ 7:20 a. M. On 6/10/13 explaining my situation. He stated that over the phone it sounds like the inner cooler. He explained to me that it is not dangerous and not to worry. He said the part was an updated part and they would have to run diagnostics to know the problem for sure. Dropped truck off at ford dealership @ 11:10 a. M. On 6/12/13. Received phone call from ford @ 3:20 on 6/13/2012. They told me that it was not my inner cooler because my truck has this so called updated inner cooler and they replaced my catalytic converter. They assured me this was fixed and would not happen again since the system was updated. The power loss happened two more times since and has me really worried to drive it.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
