Consumer Description

MY 2006 FORD FREESTYLE OCCASIONALLY EXPERIENCES ENGINE REV AND SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN OPERATED AT LOW SPEEDS, USUALLY WHEN THE AC IS IN USE. OCCURS ONLY AFTER IDLING OR OPERATING AT LOW SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 3 MINUTES. EACH TIME I HAD SUFFICIENT CLEARANCE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT, BUT IT'S BEEN CLOSE. IT HAS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 6-8 WEEKS, PRETTY MUCH SINCE IT HAD GOTTEN WARM ENOUGH TO USE THE AC. NEVER HAPPENED IN THE PAST 3+ YEARS OF OWNERSHIP UNTIL THIS YEAR. MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE WAS YESTERDAY, 30 MAY 2010. *TR
