Consumer Description

THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST SPEED, THEN WENT VERY SLOWLY. A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SO I STOPPED THE CAR AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND IT SEEMED FINE SO I PROCEEDED AND IT WENT APPROXIMATELY 150 YARDS AND THEN REPEATED THE SUDDEN LOSING POWER. A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I LOOKED IN THE MANUAL AND IT SAID I STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. SINCE IT WAS A SUNDAY AND 200 MILES FROM THE DEALER WHO HAD JUST REPAIRED A PROBLEM TWO DAYS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, I DECIDED TO RETURN HOME AND TAKE IT TO THE DEALER ON MONDAY. IT DID NOT LOSE POWER DURING THE TRIP AND AFTER THE THIRD TIME OF STOPPING THE ENGINE, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF. ALTHOUGH THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON MONDAY..THE SERVICE DEPT. PERSON SAID IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY STUCK OPEN. I CONTACTED THE FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WHO OFFERED TO PAY HALF OF THE REPAIR. *TR
