What owners wrote
Vehicle was moving, was parking in my driveway when it stalled and wouldn't start. Vehicle towed to mullinax ford, new smyrna beach, florida. Invoice # 191885. The wire from the fuel pump/relay overheated and burned the wire and the fuse causing the vehicle to stop. Fors is aware of this problem and even have a relocate kit el3z 14293 a to correct the problem. This should be a recall not a repair paid for by the customer. There is obviously a defect in the design and they even have a kit to correct.
While making a left hand turn across traffic I floored the gas pedal and all power was lost almost resulting in a crash. The next time was on the highway while trying to pass another vehicle total loss of power. Unable to pass almost rear ended, luckily able to get off the road. Today november 3rd 2013 9:00 am traveling 40 MPH on flat ground clear sky about 45 degrees I floored it and the truck did nothing it did shake alittle and I kept my foot to the floor for about 1/2 a mile and it never regained any power.
