Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 70 AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH WHEN I SUDDENLY LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY A SEMI TRAVELING BEHIND ME BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAD ABSOLUTELY ZERO ACCELERATION. THE "WRENCH" LIGHT ON MY CAR CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME THIS HAPPENED. THE SEMI BEHIND ME SWERVED TO MISS ME AND I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. LIGHTS, CLIMATE CONTROL (A/C), RADIO, ETC. WORKED FINE. ENGINE STILL RAN BUT WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF TO CALL FOR ASSISTANCE. UPON SEEING IF THE CAR WOULD RE-START, IT DID AND NO "WRENCH" LIGHT APPEARED. I WAS ABLE TO THEN GET THE CAR TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, BUT BEING A HOLIDAY THEY WERE CLOSED. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED WHEN THIS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE WITH THE SEMI BEHIND ME!! SOUNDS LIKE SOME KIND OF FUEL INJECTOR OR THROTTLE PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE IS NOT EVEN 3 YEARS OLD AND I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW IN DEC. 2011. *TR
