NHTSA Complaint #11414922 — 2015 FORD EXPEDITION

WHILE PASSING SLOWER TRAFFIC ON I 80 EXPERIENCED SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. WAS TRAVELLING AT SPEED LIMIT (80) WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE INTO THE MEDIAN TO AVOID A SUDDEN SLOW DOWN IN THE LEFT LANE LINE OF TRAFFIC. LATER DIAGNOSED TO BE THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN AN AREA OR SITUATION WHERE I COULD NOT HAVE IMMEDIATELY LEFT THE ROAD IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION AT HIGHWAY SPEED.
