Consumer Description

HAVE A 2005 FORD FREESTYLE . IN THE LAST MONTH, THE CAR HAS BEEN SURGING AND TAKING OFF WITHOUT MY TOUCHING THE GAS. IT SURGED VIOLENTLY BACKWARD WHILE I WAS PARALLEL PARKING AND RAN UP ON THE CURB . I STOOD ON THE BRAKE AND THE ENGINE QUIT AND WENT INTO A FAULT MODE. IT DID THIS THREE TIMES AFTER RE-STARTING THE CAR EACH TIME. IT ALSO ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO SURGED FORWARD INTO THE COMMUNITY. IT IS NOW SURGING AT A THIRD OF MY STOPS. I DON'T TRY AND BACK IT UP IF AT ALL POSSIBLE. I AM CONVINCED THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO ALLOW ANYONE IN MY FAMILY TO DRIVE IT.I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE RE-CALLED AND FIXED. *TR
