Consumer Description

JUST LEFT HIGHWAY SITTING AT RED LIGHT. LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND PROCEEDED TO GO WHEN A TOOL LIGHT THAT LOOKS LIKE A WRENCH LIT UP ON THE DASH. CAR WOULD NOT GO JUST COASTED ALONG. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY COAST THE CAR OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AFTER I TURNED MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO ALERT THE OTHER DRIVERS THAT I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND CONTINUE TO DRIVE TO MY DESTINATION. I CALLED THE FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT I TAKE MY VEHICLE TO AND WAS TOLD THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CAR NEEDS A NEW THROTTLE BODY. *TR
