Consumer Description

MY 2005 LINCOLN LS HAS BEEN GOING INTO AN ETC FAILSAFE MODE ALMOST EVERY OTHER DAY FOR LAST FOUR MONTHS. DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME IT IS A FAULTY ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR. HOWEVER, THIS PART WAS AND CONTINUES TO BE ON A "NATIONAL BACKORDER". I HAVE AVOIDED COUNTLESS CRASHES DUE TO THIS FAILURE WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. ONCE THE ETC FAILURE COMES ON, I LOSE ALL ACCELERATOR POWER AND MERELY COAST IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET OFF HIGHWAY SO I CAN RESTART THE CAR. ON ONE PARTICULAR DAY THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF DRIVING ABOUT 15 MILES. I AM PUTTING THE INCIDENT DATE AS WHEN I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP LAST HOWEVER THIS ISSUE IS ON GOING. *TR
