Description of the problem | I was driving downhill on a curvey road when i began to brake the engine surged i applied the brakes and the truck slowed. Approximately 5 miles later i was approaching a stop sign at a usually very busy intersection (route 2 in massachusetts) i applied the brakes and the engine surged before i could stop the truck i was 10 feet beyond the stop sign in the intersection. Fortunately, no cars were coming otherwise we would have been hit in the side doors. This problem has been occurring intermittently since i purchased the vehicle in june but i had made excuses and it was never rto the extent that occurred this past week. |
