Consumer Description

CAR SHUTS DOWN AT ALMOST ANY SPEED WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, THE ENGINE GOES IN TO LIMP MODE, AND IT VERY DANGEROUSLY FORCES YOU TO EXIT THE ROAD QUICKLY. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO 2 VERY REPUTABLE SERVICE SHOPS (AND PAID THEM TO FIX IT), AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPAIR IT. BASED ON THE # OF REPORTED ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE, FORD NEEDS TO QUICKLY FIX THIS AND MAKE IT RIGHT AT NO CHARGE.
