Look up this topic on a Ford truck forum: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/truck-shut-down-while-driving-highway-320870/index2/ - some say the steering gear caused the shutdown, others a sensor. No matter what, you should take this to the dealer if under warranty. Even if it isn't under warranty, still take it in, they may have a TSB for the occurrence. This could be a major safety issue, so I wouldn't dilly-dally.
