We have been unaware of these recalls, and after drivers endangering themselves and public safety, losing time, money, and affected our carrier rating due to unexplained loss of power while driving. We have spent thousands getting towed and useless repairs. The truck has shut off in motion and while idle, from highways to city streets and parking lots.
