Description of the problem	This vehicle has died on me numerous times while driving down the freeway or around town driving. It has been very scary and a miracle we weren't killed. The first time it happened in 2006. The ford dealer had no idea what it was, finally discovered it was happening in cold weather, moist air or rain. The pcm was getting wet. They put foam and sealed with an adhesive. It started again in 2008 had to be resealed. It has started again in 2011 and 2012 it is very scary and you never know when you will lose power. It is very expensive to have fixed. Ford knows this was a bad design. They are waiting for someone to get killed and be sued before they will take responsibility for this problem. My van is now parked, while i try to get the money together to have it sealed again. Hemborg ford doesn't even offer a discount for the repair. They are not concerned at all that the vehicle dies while you are traveling down the freeway. This van has had numerous recalls, it should have had one for the pcm but so far it has not. I guess they are waiting for someone to die. Online there is a lot of complaints on this same issue from people from all over the united states.
