NHTSA Complaint #10500728 — 2011 FORD FUSION

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A BUSY ROAD DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR AND OUT OF NO WHERE THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE. AS I PUSHED THE GAS PEDDLE IT WOULDN'T GO AND THE WRENCH LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON. I ALMOST WAS HIT FROM THE CAR BEHIND ME. I THEN PUT MY FLASHERS ON AND WENT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT OFF AND RAN OK. I RAN THE VEHICLE REPORT FROM THE MICROSOFT SYNC ON THE CAR AND NO WARNINGS CAME UP. WHILE COMING HOME IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN DURING EVENING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC NEARLY GETTING HIT FROM BEHIND AGAIN. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN. IT RAN FOR ANOTHER 9 MILES AND DID THE EXACT SAME THING AGAIN. WHILE DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP IT DID THIS TWO MORE TIMES. I JUST GOT A PHONE CALL FROM THEM SAYING IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY. AFTER GOING ONLINE AND READING OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AND ABOUT BEING INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS THEMSELVES NOT REALLY SURE WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK GOD SOMEONE WAS LOOKING OUT FOR ME YESTERDAY BECAUSE THE ROADS WERE SLICK AND IT WAS SNOWING REALLY HARD. NOW I HAVE TO PAY $388.00 TO HAVE SOMETHING FIXED THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN RECALLED IN THE FIRST PLACE. *TR
