Consumer Description

MY 2005 FORD F150 LOSES THE ABILITY TO USE THE GAS THROTTLE. I CAN STILL STEER AND THE ENGINE, LIGHTS, AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, AND BRAKE SYSTEM STILL WORK. THE HAS HAPPENED ABOUT TWO DOZEN TIMES STARTING IN OCT 2010 AND STILL OCCURRING AS OF DECEMBER 2011. I HAVE HAD TO SWERVE ACROSS FREEWAY LANES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE WRENCH SIGN COMES ON IN THE DASH. I AM ABLE TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND IT TURNS RIGHT BACK ON. THE WRENCH GOES AWAY BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. IT REALLY SCARES ME BECAUSE I VISIT THE MOUNTAINS IN THE WINTER AND I AM AFRAID THIS WILL HAPPEN ON THE WAY TO THE MOUNTAIN AND KILL ME OR MY FAMILY. I HAVE HEARD NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *TR
