Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE BEGAN DECELERATING AND PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR WAS USELESS. IT BEGAN JERKING, LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO SHIFT BACK INTO GEAR OR DOWN SINCE THERE WAS A SUDDEN DECREASE IN SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT AND PUT IN INTO PARK. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ALLOWED IT TO SIT FOR A MOMENT. I ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON. IT TOOK A MOMENT FOR IT TO KICK OVER, BUT EVENTUALLY IT DID. I GOT BACK OUT ONTO THE ROAD. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN NOT MORE THAN 100 FEET DOWN THE ROAD. AGAIN I PULLED IT TO A PARKING LOT AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME AFTER THAT WITH NO ISSUES. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR
