NHTSA complaint #11299411, filed 2020-01, 50 miles“Driving highway speed. My truck had 5-6 gallons in the tank. Suddenly the lights on dash went off and loss of power. Truck would only drive 25mph. I had to pullover and thought I was gonna get crushed by the 18 wheeler behind me. Very dangerous situation. Now I do not let the tank get below 1/2 empty. Very annoying for a $55,000 truck”
