Description of the problem	My husband was east bound on hwy 90 by ritzville, wa when his ford ranger went off the road for no reason (according to witnesses as he had just passed a truck) the truck rolled, seat-belt failed and he was thrown from the truck. We have had lots of problems with this ranger and our bronco ii stalling out at road speeds. I believe this is what happened to my husband. According to the investigating policeman, there was no evidence of anything wrong with the truck such as a blown tire, broken tie-rod, etc. This accident occured on a straight strech of road in the early afternoon under good weather conditions. I have a number of repair and replacement reciepts related to this stalling problem. As well as a bronco ii that still stalls at highway speeds! Please help by investigating this problem.*ak
