Consumer Description

THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR AT CARMAX IN OCTOBER 2012 THAT THE CAR HAS "SHUT OFF" WITHOUT WARNING AT LOW SPEED WHEN CLOSE TO PARKING OR DRIVING SLOW--WITHOUT RHYME NOR REASON--I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AT CARMAX TO NO AVAIL, THEN CHEROKEE FORD TO NO AVAIL (WHERE I PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY), THEN AT CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AUTO WHERE THEY REPLACED THE SPARK PLUGS AND COIL.( I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY SO MY COST WAS 200DOLLARS) THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND SEE THE THROTTLE BODY IS MOST LIKELY THE CULPRIT AND A SAFETY ALERT IS ON THE WEB FROM CONSUMER REPORT AND FORD FORUM AND NORTH CAROLINA SAFETY BOARD---I AM HAVING THE TROTTLE BODY REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE--MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND I WANT IT SAFE! APPARENTLY THIS INVOLVES THIS MODEL 2009-2012. *TR
