Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST KILLED WHEN WE TRIED TO PULL INTO TRAFFIC AND THE THROTTLE STUCK. SHE IS LEARNING TO DRIVE AND DID NOT KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THE CAR NOT STARTING WHEN SHE PRESSED THE GAS AND THEN IT SUDDENLY LURCHED INTO TRAFFIC. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL FOR THE 2001-2004 ESCAPES. I CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND IT IS 500+ TO FIX. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 85K ON IT AND I FIND THIS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. SINCE I CANT AFFORD TO FIX IT NOW IT WILL SIT IN MY DRIVE WAY. THANKS FORD. *TR
