What owners wrote
I went to pass a slow moving vehicle and only had a short distance to pass. I pressed down hard on the accelerator, the engine shutdown, truck was coasting, and the orange traction slip light came on. Then the engine came back on and I was able to finish passing. This was in carlsbad, nm. I took it to the local ford dealer they said there nothing showed on their diagnostic computer, but they did try to charge me $150 labor.
The down hill decent light and traction control sensor are intermittent which affects the blinkers, the power locks on the doors and sometimes the traction control.
