Consumer Description

WHILE I PULLED IN A PARKING LOT AFTER FREEWAY DRIVING THE THROTTLE STICKS. THIS ONLY HAPPENS IN LOT TEMPERATURES. THIS MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. YOU HAVE TO PUSH THE BRAKE EXTREMELY HARD TO STOP AND THE MOMENT YOU REMOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE THE VEHICLE SPEEDS UP. WHEN THIS HAPPENS ON SNOW COVER ROADS THE ABS KICKS IN. WHEN THE ABS RELEASES THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE JERKS FORWARD 2 TO 3 FEET. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. FORD HAS ISSUES A TSB ON THE PROBLEM (TSB 01-21-5) SUGGESTING A PVC REPAIR KIT. THE PROBLEM IS NOT BEING CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE PART, IT IS A DEFECTIVE DESIGN ALLOWING MOISTURE TO ENTER THE SYSTEM FROM THE PCV AND ICE UP THE THROTTLE PLATE. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. *TR
