Consumer Description

ISSUES WITH THROTTLE BODY , THE WRENCH LIGHT HAS COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS(UNDER 45MPH) THE CAN WILL RANDOMLY LURCH AT LOW SPEEDS , HAVING THE AIR CONDITIONER ON SEEMS TO MAKE THE PROBLEM WORSE . THE WAY THE CAR JOLTS AND JUMPS IS UNPREDICTABLE AND MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE . THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR , AND AFTER YEARS AND MANY TRIPS TO THE FORD DEALER THE PROBLEM WILL STOP FOR ONLY A FEW DAYS OR FEW MONTHS AND THEN THE SAME PROBLEM STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. ALSO OTHER OWNERS OF FORD FREESTYLES MADE EITHER IN2005 OR 2006 HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCES THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED. I STRONGLY FEEL THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED DUE TO THE SAFETY ISSUES. *TR
