NHTSA Complaint #10148169 — 2004 FORD EXPLORER

. 3- NOW IT HAS ACTUALLY BEGAN TO DIE INSTEAD OF JUST STALLING AND HESITATING. NOW THEY ADVISE ITS THE THROTTLE SENSOR. IN ALL 3 CASES - WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN REVERSE THERE IS ALWAYS A HESITATION, THEN IT WILL JERK HARD INTO REVERSE. WHEN SLOWING DOWN AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT THERE WILL BE ANOTHER BANGING NOISE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN DRIVE FROM THE REVERSE THERE IS ALWAYS A DELAY THEN WILL JERK IN FORWARD DRIVE. NOW THE LITTLE WRENCH COMES ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE CAR WILL DIE FOR NO APPARENT REASON, WHEN THIS HAPPENS I CAN NOT DO ANYTHING!!!! WHEN IS THIS GOING TO BE FIXED? FORD WAITING ON SOMEONE TO GET KILLED FIRST? I HAVE ALMOST CAUSED TWO WRECKS WITH MY CAR STALLING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE GOING FROM 65 MPH AND THEN DIE WITHOUT A WARNING AND WHAT AM I TO DO WITH THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME? THIS IS SERIOUS!! I TOOK MY CAR IN AND HAD IT HOOKED UP TO THE MACHINE TO READ WHAT WAS GOING ON AND THE MECHANIC SHOULD ME THAT THE CAR WOULD READ NOTHING ON ANY OF THEIR MACHINES! THE CONSUMERS NEED YOUR HELP! WE HAVE THESE NEW (2004) VEHICLES THAT ARE DANGEROUS AND WE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING TO PAY FOR A LEMON. FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAD TO KNOW WHEN THIS HAPPEN IN THEIR PLANT AND SHOULD HAVE NOT SOLD THESE CARS!!!! PLEASE HELP AND ISSUE A RECALL, THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP. *JB
