Consumer Description

ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO I BOUGHT A 2007 FORD FREESTYLE. ONE DAY WHEN ME, MY DAUGHTER, AND MY GRANDDAUGHTER WENT SHOPPING , IN WARNER ROBINS GEORGIA MY CAR STOPPED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND CUT OFF . WE JUST ABOUT HAD PEOPLE HIT US IN ALL DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. SO I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND DROVE INTO THE PARKING LOT AND CALLED THE PEOPLE I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM. THEY TOLD US TO BRING THE CAR TOO THEM. WELL A COUPLE DAYS LATER WHEN I WAS SUPPOSE TO TAKE THE CAR TO THEM IT TURNED OFF TWO TIMES IN ONE DAY! I HAD BOUGHT ALL OF THE AVAILABLE WARRANTY I COULD BUY WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR, BUT TODAY THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY, AND THAT NO MATTER IF YOU FIX IT, IT CAN CONTINUE TO MESS UP (AND IT IS NOT ON THE WARRANTY!!!) , AND THE COST OF THE PART TO FIX IT IS 670.00. I AM UNSATISFIED AND SCARED TO DRIVE IT AND I FEEL LIKE ITS A BIG SAFETY RISK!!! I DON'T WANT TO CONTINUE DRIVING IT WITH IT TURNING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT MAKES ME SCARED AND I AM NERVOUS FOR MY FAMILY!! I HAVE READ ON THE INTERNET THAT ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE THROTTLE BODY FOR THERE 2007 FORD FREESTYLE!! *KB
