NHTSA Complaint #10523360 — 2006 FORD FREESTYLE

MY 2006 FORD FREESTYLE HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN BEFORE AND NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THE CAR WILL LUNGE FORWARD AT LOW SPEEDS. WHEN THIS OCCURRED BEFORE THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT COST ABOUT $700. HERE ALMOST TWO YEARS LATER, IT IS DOING IT AGAIN. THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN IT WILL DO IT, AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY TO REPLACE THIS PART EVERY OTHER YEAR. FROM READING ONLINE FORUMS, IT SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. FORD NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND FIND A FIX THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. YET FORD DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT!! *TR
