Consumer Description

2006 FORD FREESTYLE - TROUBLE BEGAN @ 60,000 MI. WHEN I NOTICED THE THROTTLE UNRESPONSIVE. THE UNRESPONSIVENESS CAN BE DESCRIBED AS A "DEAD ZONE" IN THE TRAVEL OF THE GAS PEDAL. ONCE PAST THE DEAD ZONE, THE CAR WILL LUNGE TO ACHIEVE THE NEWLY FOUND PEDAL POSITION. VEHICLE WILL ALSO SURGE AT LOW SPEEDS WHEN A/C COMPRESSOR ENGAGES...NEVER DID THAT BEFORE. TWICE NOW, CAR WILL NOT MOVE AFTER START...ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON...TURN OFF, RESTART, TURN OFF, RESTART, AND THE CAR IS BACK TO NORMAL, WITH NO LIGHT. THROTTLE BODY WAS DIAGNOSED AS THE PROBLEM AT FORD DEALER. *TR
