UPON ACCELERATION MY TRUCK SHIFTED ROUGHLY SPUTTERED AND SHUT DOWN, THEN THE WRENCH SHOWED UP AND I HAD TO DRIFT TO SIDE OF ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. THEY HAVE DONE A COMPUTER UPDATE 1ST TIME, NO LUCK, REPLACED A LOOSE PIN,NO LUCK, REPLACED COMPUTER , NO LUCK, REPLACED CRANK SHAFT SENSOR, NO LUCK. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY EVENT. TWO TIMES MY TRUCK STALLED AND SHUT OFF WHILE MERGING ONTO AN EXTREMELY BUSY HIGHWAY. I HAVE CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN MY TRUCK AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE. I HAVE OPENED A CASE WITH FORD BUT ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS KEEP FIXING IT. 44,000 TRUCK , TRANSMISSION STINKS AND I WANT A REFUND. SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY HURT OR DIE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR
