Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 FORD FREESTYLE. YESTERDAY WHEN BACKING UP THE CAR SUDDENLY SURGED. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR AND IT STALLED. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE CAR HAS DONE THIS BUT THIS TIME WAS THE MOST NOTICEABLE. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY AND ONLY SEEMS TO DO IT WHEN AT IDLE SPEEDS. IT DOES HAPPEN IN FORWARD AND REVERSE. MAINLY IN PARKING SITUATIONS. THIS MAY ALSO BE RELATED TO THE A/C AS I JUST STARTED NOTICING THIS ISSUE IN EARLY SUMMER WHEN I STARTED TO USE THE A/C. *TR
