Consumer Description

WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC YESTERDAY EVENING A WARNING APPEARED ON THE DISPLAY PANEL "STOP SAFELY NOW". I WAS UNABLE TO EXIT THE ROADWAY IMMEDIATELY DUE TO TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE ENGINE OPERATING INDICATOR (A GREEN CAR WITH ARROWS POINTING FORWARD AND BACK) WAS NO LONGER ON BUT ACCESSORIES ON THE CAR WORKED PROPERLY (E.G. HEADLIGHTS, POWER STEERING, ETC) I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN OFF THE CAR WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL ENGAGED IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESTART BUT CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY PUSH THE CAR OFF OF THE ROADWAY INTO A PARKING LOT. THE CAR'S IGNITION TURNED OFF ONCE I WAS BACK IN THE VEHICLE AND THE DOOR CLOSED. I POWERED THE CAR ON AFTER IT HAD FULLY SHUT DOWN AND IT RETURNED TO OPERATING NORMALLY. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE ALL-ELECTRIC FORD FOCUS. THANK YOU. *TR UPDATED 1/28/16 *JS
