NHTSA Complaint #10522471 — 2010 MERCURY MARINER

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT 45 MPH AND THE VEHICLE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER, BUT DID NOT DIE. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. I RESTERTED THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED FINE. I DROVE TWO MILES AND ENGINE LOST POWER AGAIN. THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTERTED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON, BUT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE ONE MILE TO A FRIENDS HOUSE. I LET IT SIT FOR 4 HOURS AND DROVE 1/10 OF A MILE AND ENGINE LOST POWER AGAIN. MY FRIEND GAVE ME A RIDE HOME AS I WAS 12 MILES FROM HOME. I CALLED A TOWING SERVICE AND HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO LOCAL GARAGE. COMPUTER CODE REGISTERED A P2111. I CONTACTED LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY RECOMMENDED A THROTTLE BODY CLEANING BECAUSE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 6,000 MILES. HAD SERVICE PERFORMED ON 6/24. ON 6/29 THE ENGINE STALLED AGAIN. *TR
