A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
Driving home from work yesterday, going 45mph on a 2 lane hwy in a sleet storm in the midwest & my truck seemed to lose power. Tried to give it gas, but nothing happened, also tried to brake & realized my brakes weren't working. Everything had gone out. I was lucky that oncoming traffic was far enough off and I was close enough to a side street that I coasted it (steering w/ manual steering only) into a turn until it stopped. Again I was lucky I had enough power left to make that turn and not get stuck in the middle of it.
My cell phone was almost dead because my office had been without power all day at work & I hadn't been able to charge it. It took several attempts to get a call to my husband who had chosen not to drive his semi in the storm that day (thank God!). He drove over in his old little car to take a look. He went & bought a battery, but we both knew that wasn't going to do it.
At 68,000 miles, it was time for a new one anyway. But, the truck was still a sitting duck as it was just off a main highway where a lot of traffic turns. He ended up having to get his semi tractor & pull my truck home. Then together (me getting over bronchitis & him w/ a lingering cough from the flu), in the sleet, snow & mud, we pushed the Expedition into my driveway (we live in the country). He said he didn't think it was the fuel pump but after some research believes it may be a part leading to the fuel pump that he says is apparently a "known issue". He's going to buy that part after delivering a load today. We'll see.
I never had a problem before. To totally lose power suddenly while driving down a busy two lane highway in a storm was really scary. This could have caused a major accident. I'm still thankful my truck didn't get hit after I was able to get it to the side road because we don't have "shoulders" on side roads in the country :-(
