While driving vehicle suddenly lost power and idled. Dealership serviced vehicle 5 times and replaced ignition coil, mass air flow sensor, and 2 other components. But the failure still recurred. Also, vehicle was serviced 3 times for brake failure. Brake pads and rotors were replaced twice. But grinding continued.

At approximatlely 50-60 mph the car has a engine miss. Car loses power that can last for a second or more. Problem is a intermittent one. I have had it to the dealer at least 5 times. They have replaced the computer and the mass air sensor but the problem still happens. It seems to happen more when the truck is under load ie: Going up a hill, passing.
