Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING 55MPH ON HIGHWAY, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS NO POWER TO GAS PEDAL. THE CHECK ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT FLASHED, I PULLED OVER THREE LANES TO SIDE OF ROAD. I SAT THERE TRYING TO START VEHICLE CONTINUOUSLY, FINALLY AFTER 10 MINUTES IT STARTED. MY 9 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER AND I WAS ALMOST KILLED ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE IS NOW RUNNING TERRIBLE. I CAME HOME TO SEE IF I COULD FIND ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THIS IS COMMON IN THE 2005 FORD EXPEDITION AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE GETTING KILLED FOR FORD TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM? IT OBVIOUSLY IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND THEY ARE DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT. I WILL BE CONTACTING FORD TOMORROW TO SEE ABOUT GETTING MY VEHICLE IN AND FIXING THIS. *TR
