NHTSA Complaint #10609585 — 2011 FORD MUSTANG

MY WIFE ,WHO IS THREE MONTHS PREGNANT, WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WENT INTO WHAT I AM HEARING IS "LIMP MODE". THE CAR LOSSES POWER , NEVER SHUTS OFF, IT REDUCES THE RPMS TO ABOUT 600 AND SPEED TO ABOUT 10 TO 12 MPH. WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO HER SHE JUST BARELY GOT OFF THE ROAD BEFORE AN 18 WHEELER HIT HER FROM BEHIND. WHEN I ARRIVED ON SCENE I CUT THE VEHICLE OFF FOR ABOUT 10 SEC. THEN STARTED IT BACK UP AND IT RAN FINE. THIS HAPPENED TWICE MORE BEFORE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I SCANNED THE CAR TROUBLE CODE P2111 DISPLAYED SAYING FAILED THROTTLE BODY. I RESET THE COMPUTER WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE ABOUT $170.00 ANDTHERE WAS ABOUT A 50% CHANCE THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM SO I KEPT MY MONEY AND LEFT. DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND MANY DIFFERENT FORUMS WHERE PEOPLE WITH MUSTANGS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR ETB ( ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY) ON THEIR VEHICLE BUT FORD SAYS THERE IS NO ISSUE. WHILE DOING MY RESEARCH I FOUND WHERE FORD ISSUED A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM NO. 13N03 ON FUSIONS, ESCAPES, AND MILIANS FOR A DEFECTIVE EBT BUT THE MUSTANG IS NOT COVERED OR ACKNOWLEDGED EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IS THE SAME EXACT ISSUE THAT IM HAVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US ABOUT 10 DIFFERENT TIMES SINCE THE FIRST INSTANCE. IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED AND A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP. *TR
