2012 PLatinum F 150 Ecoboost died.
Hey guys. I've been off line for a while, but here I am first day back and whine.
I was driving down the expressway yesterday morning, doing about 95kph when all of a sudden truck just shut down. No warning, no previous lurching, just quit on the spot. I managed to coast in under the bridge and it was towed to the dealer. Motor cranks over, but will not start. All lights work, electronics etc. Ford is stumped. Can't get it to start. The obvious was checked; fuel filter,ECM etc. They've been on the phone with the Ford Engineers all day. They just called me and said; and I quote.: We have no idea what to do next. Comforting eh? The truck has 59,000 kms (40,000 miles)

You crossed thru the Electromagnetic field which immobilized your electronics and caused your engine to cutoff. Just push and hold Ctrl/Alt/Del to reboot your truck!! Sorry had to do it. Just glad that this didn't cause and accident. Great, just another thing to be concerned with these computer controlled F150's.

Yeah, get me a truck with air conditioning and a radio. I don't need anything else. They gave me a brand new F 150 Eco from the rental fleet to drive until they find the problem.
