Consumer Description

DRIVING ON CITY STREET, SPEED LIMIT 45, UNABLE TO NORMALLY ACCELERATE - DID SO EXTREMELY SLOWLY - NOTICED WRENCH INDICATOR LIGHT AND STOP SAFELY WARNING LIGHT BOTH ON. CAR WOULD ONLY ACCELERATE TO 40MPH DESPITE PRESSING GAS PEDAL DOWN COMPLETELY. COULD NOT DRIVE TO WORK AS IT REQUIRED HIGHWAY DRIVING UP TO 60 MPH AND COULDN'T RISK DANGER OF SLOW OR STALLING VEHICLE. RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS WELL KNOWN TO FORD (FAULTY THROTTLE BODY) AND WAS PARTIALLY ACCOMMODATED WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY (13N03) BUT OTHERWISE ELIGIBLE HYBRID VEHICLES NOT COVERED BY THAT PROGRAM. DANGEROUS ISSUE + KNOWN TO MANUFACTURER = EVENTUAL LAWSUIT.
