| Description of the problem | Service advance trac light came on while driving at highway speeds. Complete loss of power but engine was still running at a very rough idle. Zero throttle response. This happened while pulling a 30 ft camper in downtown nashville. Extremely dangerous situation. I was able to shut the truck off and restart it to clear the code but it continued to happen. After researching online i've found that this is a very common problem caused by the throttle body and sensor. Theres recalls out for multiple f150 truck models but apparently mine was made at a time that wasn't included in the recall. Ford has a bigger problem than they are admitting to and they are putting people's lives in danger by doing so. I reached out to ford because i wanted them to document that theres a problem if they weren't going to fix it. They recommended i report it to the nhtsa. I nearly got hit multiple times because of a faulty sensor that costs less than $300 to replace. |
