Ecoboost wouldn't accel. today
Long story short today turning onto the highway from about 15 mph I went to accelerate quickly and after the downshift the truck just kinda lugged along for a few seconds. I let off the gas and accelerated slowly and everything worked fine. Another hour into the drive after trying to replicate the problem with no luck it happened again. This time I was trying to pass from 50 mph, right after the down shift same thing just kinda lugged along with no further acceleration. A few seconds later it picked up and all was fine from then on out. Dealer said it might be a computer memory issue, whatever that means. They offered me a free rental and said they would look at it first thing in the morning. The truck is a 2011 FX4 EB w/ 9k miles. Anyone else have anything like this happening?

Around Christmas time mine did that, then the PCM relay fried, there is an update/reprogram from ford that has to do with that, they did the reprogram and it seems to have fixed it, they are putting new catalytic converters on it this week, so ford is aware there is a fix and you should be good to go.
