I am sure this has been covered many times over but I haven't been able to find what I am looking for under the search function.
I have ordered a 2015 SHO, I have went as far to call a Ford field Service Engineer that I know personally. At that time time I wasn't aware of the problems with humidity causing a limp mode, check engine light and reduced power. My understanding this may happen on acceleration to pass or entering the interstate. My understanding is that Ford corrected the problem in 2012 but it is limited as to the information I have been able to find.
Could someone please enlighten me on this issue or any other issues that currently exist with the 2015 models.

I believe the "problem" you are referring to, had to do with IC picking up excessive moisture &/or humidity causing the resulting condition you describe.

However, the "problem" was isolated almost, if not entirely, to the F150 Ecoboost, & NOT the SHO's.

I did read that there was a lawsuit from three owners in Michigan, two SHO and one F150. I believe that was in 2010. That's great if there are no concerns for the SHO. It has been 3 weeks since I ordered the 2015, so it should be at the dealer within 2 more weeks.

From my understanding, design modifications were made to the 2013 ecoboost intercooler and spark plugs. Good videos on Youtube by Ford mechanic under the user name "FordTechMakuloco".
