Consumer Description

UPON ENTERING A BUSY HIGHWAY OFF OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION POWER AND WENT INTO A COMPLETE SLOW CRAWL AS IF COASTING, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO GET REAR ENDED BY 60 MPH APPROACHING TRAFFIC. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO BARLEY COAST TO THE SHOULDER BEFORE ANYONE COULD HIT ME. I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE UNTIL MY HUSBAND ARRIVED TO BAIL ME OUT. HE THEN WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND MANAGED TO DRIVE IT TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP AND LEFT IT THERE OVERNIGHT. UPON DIAGNOSING THE VEHICLE WITH A DTC OF P2111, THEY INFORMED US THAT THEY ORDERED A REPLACEMENT THROTTLE BODY WHICH WOULD TAKE APPROXIMATELY 3-4 WEEKS TO OBTAIN SINCE THEY'RE ON BACK ORDER, LEAVING US WITHOUT A RELIABLE VEHICLE TILL THE REPAIR CAN BE COMPLETED. *JB
