NHTSA Complaint #10595712 — 2010 MERCURY MILAN

I WAS MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 60 MPH. MY CAR SUDDENLY WENT INTO AN IDLE AND THE WRENCH ICON CAME ON IN THE INDICATOR DASH. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND NO VEHICLE WAS BEHIND ME. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND WAS THEN ABLE TO ACCELERATE. LATER IN THE DAY, I WAS AGAIN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH. WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I THEN WENT DIRECTLY TO A FORD DEALER. THEY IMMEDIATELY KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND SAID FORD HAD EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY ON THIS PROBLEM TO 120,000 MILES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I AM SURE SOMEONE WILL AND PROBABLY HAVE BEEN FATALLY INJURED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!! *TR
