NHTSA Complaint #10557830 — 2011 FORD FUSION

I WAS DRIVING 40 - 45 MPH AND SUDDENLY I LOST ACCELERATION AND THE CAR STALLED. IT SEEMED TO HAVE FELL OUT OF GEAR AS THE CAR DID NOT 'DIE', THERE WAS NO LONGER ANY RESPONSE IN THE GAS PEDAL. I UTILIZED WHAT REMAINING SPEED I HAD TO NAVIGATE TO A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND TURNED IT ON AGAIN AND COULD DRIVE AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES ON THE WAY HOME (TOTAL DISTANCE FROM FIRST FAILURE TO 3RD FAILURE WAS LESS THAN 2 MILES). EACH TIME THE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED THE 'WRENCH' / CHECK ENGINE LINE DOES NOT RETURN. I HAD IT TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP TODAY, HOWEVER AFTER READING THE COUNTLESS EXPERIENCES OF THE SAME EXACT ORDEAL, I FELT IT NECESSARY TO CAPTURE THIS INCIDENT HERE. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
