What owners wrote

Dt: while braking the vehicle lurches forward and then it shuts down, which causes limited steering and braking abilities. The consumer has taken the vehicle to the dealer approximately three times, and was told that they couldn't do anything about it unless the problem occurred for them. On may 30, 2005 the consumer was driving the vehicle and had to brake because of the traffic in front of him, when this occurred, the vehicle lurched forward and the engine just cut out, like it was never started.

While I was driving my ford f-250 diesel of 2000 I smell like a oil burned. When I reached my house I opened the hood but I only saw some smoke coming near the brake reservoir. I said to my son that turned "on" the vehicle and them I saw when the electrical connection near the brake system begin to burn in fire. We turned "off" the vehicle and extinguished the fire with water.
