F-250 8-cyl Diesel

  • 100 miles
The truck engine will stall at low speed for one to five seconds, especially dangerous if you are trying to enter traffic. I have reported to northside Ford every time I have it serviced, they finally agreed that I have a problem, however they have failed to fix. I get the impression that Ford is aware of this problem, but for their own reasons do not want to fix it.
