NHTSA Complaint #10547307 — 2010 FORD FUSION

MY 2010 FORD FUSION LURCHED FORWARD AND THEN STALLED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT AND A WRENCH APPEARED ON THE DASH. I WAS LOSING SPEED AND HAD TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY CAUSING THE SEMI AND OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES... THE SEMI NARROWLY MISSED ME. ONCE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY I TURNED MY CAR OFF WAITED A SECOND AND RESTARTED IT. IT RAN FINE FOR ABOUT 5 MILES AND IT DID IT AGAIN. IT DID THIS A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES ON THE WAY TO WORK AND 5 ON THE WAY HOME. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO A SERVICE CENTER AND THE CODE THEY GOT WAS "P2111 THROTTLE ACTUATOR STUCK OPEN". I LOOKED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT 2011 AND 12 FUSIONS HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT NOT THE 2010 BUT SEE THAT MANY 2010 OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE AS I HAVE HAD. WHY ARE 2010 FUSIONS NOT BEING RECALLED FOR A BAD THROTTLE BODY? IT IS A VERY SCARY AND SERIOUS PROBLEM AND ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR EVEN KILLED. I WAS LUCKY. *TR
