Check Engine Light On problems of the 2000 Ford F-250

My 2000 Ford f250 truck quit in the middle of a busy street in my town. There was a recall for a cam position sensor but did not have it replaced yet. I did have spare and replaced it myself. It did fix the problem. Also had a friend reset the check engine light.

While braking the vehicle lurches forward and then it shuts down, which causes limited steering and braking abilities. The consumer has taken the vehicle to the dealer approximately three times, and was told that they couldn't do anything about it unless the problem occurred for them. On may 30, 2005 the consumer was driving the vehicle and had to brake because of the traffic in front of him, when this occurred, the vehicle lurched forward and the engine just cut out, like it was never started. This caused the consumer's vehicle to rear end the vehicle in front of him. The vehicle was taken to a body shop and it was repaired. The consumer spoke to Ford and was told that there was nothing they could do. Per consumer, none of the above is accurate. The consumer wrote: while braking, the rpm revved up, the vehicle lurched forward, then the rpm dropped and the engine had shut down. The check engine light illuminated. It would take several attempts to start the vehicle . This would occur intermittently. Each time the consumer had taken the vehicle in for repairs, the dealer would be unable to find the problem. Other problems: the cruise control was inoperative and the vehicle would die when the brakes were applied at times. Ford recalled the same make model years 2003-2005. The consumer felt that the recall started with his vehicle's year make and model.
