The owners manual states I have a tank capacity of 36 gallons. On E I can only fit about 26 gallons. If I were to take my average MPG and use the advertised 36 gallons to figure out how far I would run out of fuel and this would cause the vehicle to stall while driving. Ford is aware of this issue and knows how to fix it but declined to take care of the safety repair.

While driving vehicle down the road, "reduced engine power" light illuminates and then the vehicle stalls in less than five seconds. There is no warning of an issue or any problem before the engine dies. This is the second occurrence of this on the truck. It has happened while towing a heavy load. Total loss of power, sterring and braking ability is a serious issue and a danger to the public as well as myself and my family. This issue needs to be resolved by Ford ASAP!

The truck shuts off at while running. This happens at both highway speeds and while stopped. I have taken it to the dealer but they cannot find out what has happened. When the truck shuts of the steering and brakes are not working to the level that is needed to stop the vehicle or control the vehicle, and it appear they are power assisted from the motor, so when the motor stalls they are lost. *tr *dt updated 10/19/18
