2017 FORD EXPEDITION Vehicle Speed Controlthrottle Problems

The electronic throttle body gets stuck closed. The engine stalls or goes into limp mode. At highway speed I then have to try and navigate a dead car to the shoulder or am stuck in the middle lane with cars going past at 70+ mph. This is a known defect in fords engine and other years/models are recalled. 2017 Ford Expedition needs to be added immediately. This is dangerous.

WHEN DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS THE THROTTLE BODY RANDOMLY AND IMMEDIATELY CLOSES TO IDLE WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES BEFORE IT WAS REPLACED. IT HAS BEEN FINE SINCE.

I WAS DRIVING TO A SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT WITH OUR LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER ISSUE WHICH NEEDED CORRECTING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE CARS ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING BUT NO ACCELERATION. I MANAGED TO GET OFF THE ROAD, WITHOUT BEING HIT, AND CONTINUED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I LET THEM KNOW WHAT HAD HAPPENED BUT THEY BLAMED THE INCIDENT ON A BAD BATTERY AND I THOUGHT THE ISSUE WAS FIXED. THIS IS WHERE THE ISSUE BECOMES CATASTROPHIC IN MY OPINION. ON NOVEMBER 1, 2020 MY WIFE AND TWO FRIENDS WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND HEADING OUT OF TOWN. WE LIVE IN A MOUNTAINOUS PART OF ARIZONA. FORTUNATELY WE WERE ON A FAIRLY LEVEL STRETCH AND IN THE RIGHT LANE. THE VEHICLE'S ACCELERATOR AGAIN FAILED TO FUNCTION. WE PULLED OFF THE ROAD TO THE SHOULDER. TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, RESTARTED THE CAR AND TURNED AROUND AND...

WHILE DRIVING THE 2017 EXPEDITION EL ON A LOCAL STREET, THE ENGINE SUFFERED AN EXTREME REDUCTION IN POWER AND LIMITED SPEED TO ONLY 5 MPH. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER, IT WAS DETERMINED THE IT WAS A FAILURE OF THE THROTTLE BODY.
