Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Driving on the freeway the truck stalled. it was taken to nearest ford service center .a tech who serviced the truck found an object inside the air intake\air filter area.this got the truck running again. i was 200 miles from home and was coming back from a camping trip. the object was not identfied to me yet i had an idea of what it could be. once home i went to new century ford near my home and asked them to help me investigate this object that was found at the capistrano ford 200 miles away.don lee the service g.m. was nice to offer help in figuring out were this object came from. the truck was rised and the fender cover was removed and there i saw a object half inside the air intake and half on the fender.the object looks to be for insulation or sound resriction. the object has not been named to me by the dealerships. yet they agree it is factory installed. i was told by don that if a object even a very small object get into the "softball size air intake the truck could suffer greatly." i would not want any other person to have this problem.*ak
