| Description of the problem | I own on 2005 f-250 superduty diesel 6. 0 truck, and i was driving down the road with an approx. Speed of 45, and my vehicle stalls for about 10 seconds, i started to panic and then, it started running again after blowing a big puff of black smoke. I traveled on and everything seemed to be okay, well i continue on to get on the beltline, approx speed 65, and it did it again, it stalled for about 10 seconds and the started with a big black cloud of smoke., i could have killed someone, i was on the highway with cars all around me and it stalled, i had no where to go. They were slamming on brakes and blowing horns, i could have caused a huge accident. I was so nervous, so i went straight to the ford dealership; the parts department said that there were no recalls on anything. Something is wrong, so i came on home, got online and found that there had been a recall and it is exactly what i have experienced. It could have been devastating. Thank god no one was hurt, this should be address immediately. Please help me notify that this is a safety problem, and they need to let americans know. |
