NHTSA Complaint #10893287 — 2005 FORD FREESTYLE

IF WE CHANGE GEARS WITH THE A/C ON THE CAR LUNGES WHEN WE'RE TRYING TO COME TO A STOP. IT LUNGES AS WE'RE PARKING OR PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT. AFTER STOPPING IT WILL CONTINUE TO LUNGE WITHOUT WARNING IF IT IS IN DRIVE...IT WILL EVEN LUNGE AS WE TRY TO SHIFT TO PARK. WE ARE AFRAID WE WILL HIT SOMEONE WALKING IN A CROSS WALK OR HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF US WHILE PARKING. DURING LUNGING YOU CAN HEAR THE ENGINE REV LOUDER. LUNGES WHILE STOPPING AND WHILE BEING STOPPED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I'VE READ OTHER POSTS WITH PEOPLE SAYING THE SAME THING HAPPENING. HERE IS ONE EXAMPLE.
