NHTSA Complaint #10627122 — 2007 FORD EXPEDITION

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND MY FORD EXPEDITION STARTED HESITATING. I WAS DRIVING ON WINDING WEST VIRGINIA ROAD AT THE TIME. VEHICLE STALLED OUT AFTER HESITATIONS. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND BRING THE VEHICLE BACK TO SPEED. IT HESITATED SEVERAL MORE TIMES. IN TOWN WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP IT STALLED OUT TWICE MORE. STALLING OCCURRED AS I PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER. THEY CHANGED THE IGNITION COILS. AS I PULLED OUT OF THE DEALER IT STALLED OUT AGAIN. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WHEN THIS OCCURRED AND WAS VERY LUCKY THAT THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY HAD TO CHANGE OUT THE FUEL PUMP. THE SIDE THE ELECTRICAL WIRES ON THE PUMP HAD MELTED AND WERE MAKING INTERMITTENT CONTACT CAUSING THE HESITATION AND STALLING. THIS COULD HAVE VERY EASILY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. *TR
