NHTSA Complaint #10515983 — 2011 FORD FUSION

WHILE DRIVING THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE SET AT 75 MPH, MY CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER, AND I EXPERIENCED NO RESPONSE WHILE STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR. THOUGH THIS WAS VERY SCARY IN THE TRAFFIC I WAS IN, I WAS EVENTUALLY ABLE TO COAST TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER (AFTER UPSETTING MANY DRIVERS AROUND ME) AND CAME TO A STOP ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER. AFTER A MINUTE, I DECIDED TO SHUT OFF MY CAR, AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART, AND DRIVE AS NOTHING HAPPENED. UNFORTUNATELY, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME SITUATION THE NEXT DAY, ONLY AT A LOWER SPEED (55 MPH), AND NOT WITH AS MUCH TRAFFIC. ON THE 3RD DAY, WHILE ON MY WAY TO THE DEALER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AFTER DIAGNOSIS, FORD SAYS I EXPERIENCED A P2112 CODE, AND ALMOST 3 WEEKS LATER, FORD STILL HAS MY CAR BECAUSE THE PART (THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY) IS NOT AVAILABLE; COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. *TR
