My neighbor had it happen to his as well... I was in the truck when it happened.
All instances were in the PRIME conditions... rainy weather.

Driving on the freeway tonight in pouring down rain. 41 degrees F. Went to pass someone - and NOTHING! Near complete loss of power. Un F'n believable!!! Barley made it safely from high speed lane to right berm.....I am PO'd!!!!
CELdid come on - blinking. Power off of engine & restart"appears" ok - but I'm afraid to give it gas or pass anyone now!
To the dealer we go tomorrow...
*ugh - typo - yes, I know it's an ECO Boost....(sigh)

That sucks, my little 4.6 takes a beating and keeps on going! I would love the power and tourque but not worth it to have to deal with this.

I'm up to speed on the "cause" and attempted fixes. Definitely "perfect conditions" for this to happen based on what I read (40 degrees & 40 dew point in rain)
Build date on door sticker says 09/12 - doesn't say exact day, so I should ASSUME its BEFORE 9/18/12 - according to that "fix" link...cuz mine be broke!
We'll see what dealer says tomorrow...

Window sticker will have build date on it. Just curious. Mine was built
10-4. Will have to look at CAC on the new one compared to the traded truck.
