    Pto unit has begun leaking oil. This is a well-documented issue that ford refuses to address. The unit has not failed as of yet, but all research shows that i will be required to have critical repairs performed or i might face a safety issue while driving at highway speeds. This issue is not repairable as the unit is a maintenance free part and has no ability to be maintained by normal repair processes.

    Was driving the car and the accelerator just goes dead. This is the second time in 3 years it has happened while driving 65 mph. Very scary. Have to cruise to side of the road as the gas peddle will not respond at all. Ford already charged us $750 to fix in 2016 and now it has happened again.
