NHTSA Complaint #10984204 — 2015 FORD EXPEDITION

WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 FORD EXPEDITION HOME FROM WORK, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL GAS POWER TO THE VEHICLE. MY STEERING STILL WORKED AND POWER WAS STILL ON BUT I HAD NO GAS. I PULLED OVER, TURNED MY ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED AND COULD GO AGAIN. IT TOOK 6 TIMES TO RESTART TO GET 2 MILES TO SAFE POINT. WHERE I THEN HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. TURNS OUT IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. WHICH IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE FORD ENGINE, THE NHTSA HAD ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THAT FORD ISSUED A MANDATORY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 4 OTHER TYPE FORD VEHICLES BUT NOT THE EXPEDITION, WHICH HAS THE SAME TYPE OF ENGINE. I HAD TO PAY $560.00 TO HAVE THIS PART REPLACED ON MY VEHICLE WHEN IT'S A KNOWN FORD ISSUE. MY VEHICLE HAD 50,700 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE. I HOPE THAT THE NHTSA WILL LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FORD EXPAND THEIR MAKE AND MODEL WARRANTY AS WELL AS REIMBURSE ME FOR MY EXPENSES FOR THIS REPLACEMENT.
