Consumer Description

CAR HAS BEEN STALLING OUT OUT OF NOWHERE WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS. USUALLY IT WILL START TO PUTTER AND THEN IT LOSES POWER AND COMPLETELY STALLS. I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. THIS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE PULLING ONTO A BUSY STATE ROUTE HWY OUT OF MY PARENTS DRIVEWAY, ALMOST CAUSING MY 5 YEAR OLD SON AND I TO BE HIT BY CARS COMING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO ROLL INTO THE DRIVEWAY NEXTDOOR BEFORE THE CARS COULD HIT ME. THERE IS ONLY 125,000 MILES ON MY CAR. THE FORD MECHANIC SAID THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND HAS TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND SENSORS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I COULDN'T BE MORE UPSET.
