Consumer Description

2005 FORD EXPEDITION 5.4 ENGINE, MISFIRING 3&5 CYLINDER. ROUGH IDLE. CAR HAS 127,000 MILES AND SINCE WE HAVE HAD IT I HAD ISSUES WITH IT IDLING IN PARK AND ALMOST AT TIMES WANTING TO STALL. ENGINE HAS ON MORE THAN 3 OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING 60-70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY BECOME UN RESPONSIVE WHILE DRIVING. ENGINE WOULD RUN BUT NO ACCELERATION WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PUSHED; IT WAS LIKE THE CAR WAS RUNNING IN NEUTRAL. INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON SHOWING "ENGINE FAILURE". PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED CAR AND THEN IT RAN FINE AGAIN. FORD SVC DEPT. COULD NOT REPLICATE THE SITUATION WHEN I TOOK IT TO THEM, SO IT WAS NEVER REPAIRED. (CLEARLY THERE IS A FAULTY PROBLEM) CURRENTLY CAR IS IN THE SHOP REPLACING ALL 8 SPARK PLUGS, COILS AND BOOTS. MECHANIC INDICATED A LOT OF CARBON BUILDUP IN THROTTLE BODY. (SEEMS TO ME POSSIBLY SOME OTHER FAULTY COMPONENT COULD BE WHY I'M HAVING TO SPEND $800 TO FULLY REPAIR MY CAR). *TR
