general problems of the 2001 Ford F-250

While driving home from work today during a rain storm in rush hour (I'm traveling at 10mph top), my engine suddenly lost power and sounded as if it had lost the muffler, except the sound was coming from the engine compartment. Because of the rain, it wasn't as loud as the last time it happened three years ago, but I knew what had happened thanks to my prior experience. I pulled over immediately and exited the highway. Once the rain stopped, I was sure what had happened. There is no reason for this occurring at all, but to have it happen twice! there is seriously something wrong with the design in Ford's engines (mine is a 5. 4 v8, F-250. ) I see all the reports of the same problem on the internet and it mentions the fact that there is the possibility of engine compartment fires. When it happened to me the first time, I was told by the dealership I should be able to drive it in for service, so I did. And I did so again today, taking the backroads. Only later this evening, while researching the problem, did I discover the danger. Please apply pressure to Ford to correct this problem before someone is seriously injured. And since this is a costly repair that I feel is caused by poor design, it should not be placed on the burden of Ford customers who pay thousands of dollars for their vehicles in the first place.
