ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AT TIMES AND VERY FREQUENTLY TRUCK IS LOSING POWER TO ACCELERATE, VERY SLOW TO ACCELERATE, WILL NOT GO OVER 50MPH. THIS HAPPENS EVERYWHERE DOESN'T MATTER THE SPEED OR LOCATION. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TURBO PSI READS 0, AND YOU CAN'T HEAR THE TURBO. A WARNING WILL COME UP THAT SAYS THE EXHAUST NEEDS TO SELF CLEAN AND DRIVE TO CLEAN. SOMETIMES IT WILL HAVE THICK SMOKE COME OUT THE EXHAUST THAT STINKS. SOMETIMES THE TRUCK WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OR BRAKE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE TRUCK WILL NOT ACCELERATE SO THAT I CAN MERGE WITHOUT BEING REAR-ENDED. SOMETIMES IT WILL LOOSE ALL POWER SO I HAVE TO LET UP ON THE GAS AND TRY AGAIN SOFTLY AND IT WILL SLOWLY ACCELERATE THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THAT TURNED GREEN FOR ME, AS I WAS ENTERING THE INTERSECTION I LOST ALL POWER AND WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THE FIRST HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET INTO THE RIGHT SLOW LANE ON THE HIGHWAY FROM BEING PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND AS I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE TRUCK DID NOT ACCELERATE AT NORMAL SPEEDS AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO SPEED IN ORDER ENTER TRAFFIC IN TIME TO NOT GET REAR-ENDED BY THE CAR COMING UP IN THE LANE I WAS TRYING TO ENTER THANKFULLY THE OTHER DRIVER SWITCHED OUT OF THAT LANE.

STEERING
STEERING WHEEL WILL RANDOMLY STICK WHEN TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT FEELS LIKE FLAT TIRE AND YOU HAVE TO MUSCLE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK THE OPPOSITE WAY AND THEN YOU CAN'T CONTROL THAT. JUST HAD FRONT END REBUILT AT TRI-STATE FORD IN MARYVILLE MISSOURI WHERE WE PURCHASED IT NEW AND DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. DONE IT 3 TIMES YESTERDAY APRIL 19 2018 ALMOST CAUSING US THE HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. AT A STOP SIGN TURNING LEFT IT STUCK CAUSING US TO VEER INTO OPPOSING LANE IN FRONT OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. FOUGHT TO CORRECT THIS AND THEN IT CAUSED US TO SHOOT BACK RIGHT ONTO THE SHOULDER. WE SPENT ALMOST $1,200 DOLLARS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED AND OF COURSE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY 😡

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TRUCK IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND RECENTLY SERVICED AT FORD DEALERSHIP. AFTER RECENT SERVICE THE TRUCK WOULDN'T START. WHEN THE TRUCK WAS CHECKED BOTH LARGE FACTORY INSTALLED BATTERIES HAD CATASTROPHIC FAILURE LEADING TO BATTERY ACID CORROSION DESTROYING WIRING, POTENTIAL THE THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND OTHER ELECTRONICS THAT WERE EXPOSED TO BATTERY ACID AND CORROSION. THERE IS TREMENDOUS DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK AND A LARGE CHEMICAL SPILL FROM THE ACID. DEALERSHIP QUOTED OVER $1800 IN DAMAGES. TRUCK WAS A FIRE AND CHEMICAL HAZARD BECAUSE THE FAILURE WAS HIDDEN BY A FACTORY COVER, A HUGE COPPER CABLE WAS FREE TO ARC AND COULD HAVE IGNITED THE BATTERY OR CAUSED A DANGEROUS ELECTICAL FIRE.

I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE ISSUE IS WITH THE TRUCK; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHAKE OUT OF CONTROL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING IT DOWN THE ROAD. YOU ALMOST HAVE TO COME TO A STOP TO MAKE THE VIOLENT SHAKING END. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO CHENOWETH FORD IN CLARKSBURG, WV FOR REPAIRS, BUT THE ISSUE STILL REMAINS. I HAVE BEEN A PASSENGER IN THE TRUCK WHEN THE SHAKING HAS OCCURRED, AND IF I HAD BEEN THE DRIVER, I DO NOT KNOW IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE COMMANDED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE READ THAT ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS CALLED THE "DEATH SHAKE" AND IS COMMON IN FORD PICKUPS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE BEFORE LIVES ARE TAKEN.

WITH THAT BEING SAID I HAVE PUT ON NEW SHOCKS, REPLACED THE TRACK BAR, NEW STEERING STABILIZER SHOCK, NEW SHOCKS, GOING TO GET A THIRD ALIGNMENT, AND NEW TIRES AND STILL HAVE THE DEATH WOBBLE! THE REST OF THE FRONT END IS IN GOOD SHAPE! I'M JUST ASKING FOR SOME HELP FROM FORD! THANK YOU!
