Sirs, i recently purchased a 2004 ford f-150 supercab truck. since i have had this vehicle it has shut off sixteen times. on one occasion i was in the middle of an intersection. i was lucky and did not have an accident. please file this complaint, because i have learned this is a wide spread problem. i hope it is corrected before someone is killed. thank you, paul ferguson. *ak |
