Consumer Description

THERE IS NO WARNING - MY FORD EXPEDITION JUST GOES INTO ENGINE FAIL SAFE MODE AND SHUTS OFF - NO ABILITY TO STEER, DRIVE ETC. WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55+ MPH) WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE ENGINE FAIL SAFE HAD COME ON BEFORE BUT WAS A BIT SCARY UPON DRIVING AT A SPEED. THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 55000 MILES ON IT - AND FROM READING OTHER FORUMS I SEE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF FORD EXPEDITIONS. IT IS IN THE SHOP NOW (AT A COST OF $700) BEING FIXED, I AM GOING TO REQUEST TO HAVE THE OLD PARTS SAVED SO I CAN KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED AS IT WILL CAUSE A DEATH ONE DAY SOON - AS THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF DURING DRIVING. *TR
