Consumer Description

I OWN A 2005 FORD 500 LIMITED SEDAN. WITHIN THE PAST 6-MONTHS OR SO, I'VE EXPERIENCED SURGING OF MY ENGINE DURING IDLE; WHEN SHIFTING INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE; AND IN GEAR WITH THE BRAKE APPLIED. I WASN'T SURE HOW TO PROCEED OTHER THAN A FULL DIAGNOSTIC, WHICH WASN'T A POSSIBILITY AT THE TIME DUE TO COST. THIS SITUATION SOUNDS SIMILAR TO WHAT I READ IN THE NEWS ABOUT AN INVESTIGATION INTO THESE MODELS. THE SURGING WAS ENOUGH TO GET MY ATTENTION AS OUT OF THE ORDINARY AND HOPEFULLY A RECALL WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON. *JS
