general problems of the 2004 Ford F-350

While driving at 40-50 mph the vehicle will lose power and then then stalls while moving leading to loss of power.

This does not seem to occur as often going downhill or on areas with no incline. Currently vehicle has 126,931. 8 miles on it. Regularly serviced and otherwise running fine.

My husband and I purchased a used 2004 Ford f350 heavy duty truck in summer of 2006. I would say within the first 6-8 months of owning the truck we started having issues with the truck cutting out (no power). We had the truck into the shop on several occasions and they changed out a few hoses and did a few other things but the problem continued to occur. The truck was originally under warranty when the problem started and now they won't back the problem. We have had the truck in several times and they can't seem to find the problem and the truck continues to cut out (lose power). The truck loses power while driving down the road almost every other time we drive the truck. My husband and I have crossed major highways and had the truck lose power and almost got hit from oncoming traffic going 65-70mph. The defect of this truck is going to take mine or my husbands life along with innocent passengers. It's a danger to have on the road but Ford can't find the defect and won't stand behind their product. I'm writing to you because the truck is going to take a life and it's going to be on the bloody hands of Ford CO. I have contacted Ford several times they state it isn't their problem. I have contacted mn attorney general and they have written Ford a letter with no results. I am also going to contact local tv stations and let them know the danger that Ford has allowed on the roads. I'm hoping you can help. Thanks for your time,.

Loss of pulling power on my 2004 Ford 350 super duty. The truck will lose power to pull under even a small load. When pulling out I have to have a large area of no traffic, have had several incidents where I came close to being hit in the side when I had a power failure and pulling onto roadway. I have had the problem looked at by a Ford service center 11 times and they can not repair the problem and refuse to repurchase the truck.

While driving at any speed vehicle lost power.
