Consumer Description

THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE INSTANCES WHERE THE GAS PEDDLE CANNOT BE DEPRESSED. NO MATTER THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE APPLIED. IT HAS OCCURRED BOTH AT A STANDSTILL AND WHILE IN MOTION. I HAVE READ ITS A POSSIBLE THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM NOT SURE. FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS DURING COLD WEATHER HOWEVER IT HAS OCCURRED DURING WARM TEMPS IE 85DEGREE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE. IT HAPPENS AND THEN THERE IS NO PROBLEMS FOR A LONG TIME MAYBE MONTHS, HOWEVER IF IT WERE TO OCCUR DURING A MERGE THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS AND POSSIBLY DEADLY. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS THERE IS ALREADY MULTIPLE RECALLS ON FORDS ACCELERATION SYSTEMS IN THIS MODEL FROM PRIOR YEARS. *TR
