Complaint Summary

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Owner Narrative

Service Advance Trac System warning light illuminated while driving about 60 MPH in gusty wind. Cruise Control and Hill Assist became inop. This happened twice on one 500 mile trip, both times in windy conditions. Both times, after shutting off engine for a few minutes, no warning light and all systems functioned normally again. Reading motorhome forums, this seems to be a common problem with Ford E Series and F53 chassis motorhomes of various brands. I haven't read any conclusive fix for the problem. I do see that Ford has a service bulletin, SSM 49349 which describes this exact problem and states that Ford "...engineering is working to implement a solution for this condition...", and advises that the dealer "...schedule a follow-up appointment for service in March 2021". I have not found any additional information from Ford about a fix for the problem....now 3.5 years later.
