Consumer Description

THE ENGINE SPUTTERS AND STALLS WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS DONE THIS 10 OR MORE TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. THE YELLOW WRENCH SYMBOL IS DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AFTER GETTING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SWITCHING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON, THE CAR WILL RUN FINE FOR A FEW MILES - SOMETIMES FOR A DAY OR TWO. AFTER TALKING WITH A COUPLE FORD DEALERS, I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY AND THERE WAS NO THROTTLE BODY'S AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THERE WAS A TWO TO THREE MONTH BACKORDER FOR THE PART. IF I KEEP DRIVING THE CAR IT WILL BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE CAR WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. *TR
