Well, I guess our complaints are finally being heard.

Recall Alert: Ford F-150 EcoBoost Engine Under Investigation for Losing Power During Acceleration - Automotive News

 

95 out of 400,000 units

 

I suppose time will tell if this actually turns into a full blown recall.

 

if it is 95 units then just give them new trucks and move on.

 

That is almost 3 million dollars of free new trucks. I doubt that will fly with Ford or any other manufacture,

The author of that article is a sensationalist.

There is no recall.

 

There is no "recall" yet but it will probaly happen sooner or later. btw I have not had this issue with my eco-boost yet, I love the truck, pulls a trailer like the wind.

 

If you have experienced the symptoms as described in the article, take it to your dealer and offer this service bulletin. TSB 13-3-3 published 3-18-13
