DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 F350. HAD THE DEALER CHECK THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH. COULD NOT TELL THE PART NUMBER,BUT IT WAS THE SAME ONE BEING USED ON THE FORD/BRONCO THAT WAS BEING RECALLED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN 05V388000. IT WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT HAS THE OLD PART.

THE PROCESSOR THAT CONTROLS EMISSIONS ON A 6.0 L V-10 WITH A 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN CALIFORNIA IS THE SAME PROCESSOR AS FOR AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE USE OF THIS PROCESSOR CAUSES THE ENGINE TO SURGE OR NOT REDUCE SPEED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS RELEASED. WHEN USING THE ENGINE COMPRESSION TO SLOW DOWN, THE ENGINE WILL SURGE AND CAUDE THE VEHICLE TO SPEED-UP. THE VEHICLE IS STRESSFUL TO DRIVE IN CLOSE TRAFFIC OR IN CONGESTED PARKING LOTS. FORD WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM APPROXIAMENTLY 2 WEEKS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. FORD HAS YET TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SEEN BY NUMERIOUS FORD DEALERS IN SEVERAL STATES INCLUDING CALIFORNIA. *AK
DEALER STATES THAT THE REPAIR PART FOR THIS RECALL IS ON A SIX MONTH BACK ORDER. *AK
WHEN TAKING FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND WHEN THE ENGINE RETURNS TO IDLE, ENGINE SHUTS DOWN, CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK
