Sudden deceleration ETB failure...
Hello everyone!
My truck did the fun choking dance and basically died on me in the middle of a highway four times.
Anyone have experience with this?
First was after turning onto the road, second was going up a slight grade a few days later, the following two were on the same day within one mile of each other. All happened in an accelerating situation. It threw multiple codes in the information cluster in the digital dash screen.
The dealership is coming back that the throttle body is toast. Not covered as the truck is at 48k miles. I've noticed that there is a lawsuit that has since added the 2015 f150s into it... apparently Ford took note and was handling this as a customer satisfaction situation. Anyone know anything about this?
After narrowly missing being hit three of the four times and having no were to safely pull off, I started researching other truck brands and was ready to throw this one away. ( This is my third F150).
It's the Platinum with the 3.5L V6. ( I feel like I should have stuck with the 2012 V8, it never had any issues). I've had the truck for 3 years and 1 month.
Thank you in advance for any guidance or thoughts!
