Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING @ 50MPH ON A MULTI LANE ROAD, ENGINE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO IDLE AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS INOPERATIVE. LOST ALL POWER AND VEHICLE CAME TO A COASTING STOP. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS AN EXIT NEARBY AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE OFF THE MAIN ROAD. TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BUT NO EFFECT. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. FORTUNATELY THIS DID NOT HAPPEN DURING RUSH HOUR AS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET, THIS APPEARS TO BE A SYSTEMATIC PROBLEM WITH FORD. JUST WANTED TO GO ON RECORD THAT I ALSO HAD THIS PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS 11K MILES.
