Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-80 AT 65 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I HAD NO POWER WITH MY GAS PEDAL AND MY ENGINE LIGHT (WRENCH) CAME ON. MY CAR WAS STILL RUNNING, BUT WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL IT DID NOTHING. I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALLED FOR ROAD ASSISTANCE. SITTING THERE MY RPM'S WAS AROUND 1,000 AND MY CAR WOULD SHAKE. WHILE WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK, I SHUT MY CAR OFF AND THEN STARTED IT AGAIN. WHEN I PRESSED ON THE GAS IT STARTED TO GO AGAIN. HOWEVER, WHEN I TRIED TO GET BACK ON THE INTERSTATE I HAD NO POWER AGAIN AND MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHECKED IT AND THEY SAID THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS THE PROBLEM. *TR
