2006 FORD FIVE HUNDRED Fuelpropulsion System Problems

BATTERY JUST GOES DEAD OVER NIGHT. SIGNAL LIGHTS MELTED AND QUIT WORKING. CLUSTER PANEL JUST SHUTS OFF WHILE RUNNING AND CAN'T USE AIR, RADIO, WINDOWS, LOCKS, SEATS, ETC. CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. HAVE REPLACED ALL PARTS SUGGESTED BY CODES. STILL NO FIX. WONT SHIFT FROM FIRST GEAR AFTER CLUSTER PANEL SHUTS OFF. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OTHER COMPLAINTS. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE AN ELECTRICAL RECALL. HAPPENS RUNNING DRIVING AND SITTING STILL.

THE INTAKE MANIFOLD IS MELTING ON THE INSIDE CAUSING MELTING PLASTIC TO DRIP INTO THE THROTTLE BODY,CAUSING THE CAR TO RUN VERY POORLY ARE NOT AT ALL!!!

MY 2006 FORD FIVE HUNDRED IS SURGING THERE'S NO POWER IT STUMBLES SHUTS OFF.

DOOR FROZE SHUT AND EVER SINCE MANUALLY OPENING THE MESSAGE CENTER STATES DRIVER DOOR AJAR AND PASSENGER DOOR AJAR AND THEY ARE NOT. BUT I CAN'T RESET DRIVER CONTROLS UNTIL DOORS SHOW CLOSED. HAVE RUN CODE IN MY CAR AND ONLY CODE IS P0193 FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR. NO CODES FOR DOORS.

THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ALL POWER, NOW IT DOESN'T ACCELERATE AND THE MORE ALSO IS A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S GOUNG TO BLOW UP

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY STOPPPED WORKING. CAR ABRUPTLY LOST ALL POWER IN BUSY TRAFFIC, LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. I WAS DRIVING IN THE LEFT LANE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL POWER WAS GONE AND THE CAR WOULDN'T GO! I HAD IT DIAGNOSED BY AAA REPAIR SHOP IN LOS ANGELES. HAVE TO PAY 900 TO GET NEW THROTTLE BODY UNIT.

WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU LOSE POWER MOMENTARILY. WHEN IT KICKS BACK IN, IT LUNGES AND WILL ALMOST GIVE YOU WHIPLASH. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY DURING ACCELERATION USUALLY ON A HIGHWAY.

VEHICLE WAS STALLING OUT FINALLY QUIT, HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALER, WAS ADVISE THAT THE THROTTLEBODY HAD SHORTED OUT. THEY SAY IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACE BY THE FORD DEALERSHIP DUE TO A MANUFACTURE DEFECT 6 YEARS AGO. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAT 50,000 MILES ON. WHAT ESTIMATE COST OF REPAIRING IS $970.00. WE HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. BUT I THINK FOR SHOULD FIX IT WITHOUT CHARGE. *TR

VEHICLE SURGES FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON AND SHOWS. A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON (WRENCH). CONTROL OF ACCELERATION IS MIXED AND VEHICLE EITHER LURCHES OR FEELS AS THOUGH TRANSMISSION IS IN NEUTRAL AND RPM'S INCREASE WITHOUT ACCELERATION BY DRIVER. HAVE A SCHEDULED SERVICE CALL WITH FORD AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED A NOTICE FROM FORD THAT THIS ISSUE WILL BE COVERED. *TR

I WOULD BE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT AND WOULD PUSH ON THE THROTTLE TO ACCELERATE. THE GUY WOULD NOT MOVE AT FIRST THEN WOULD "JUMP" AND ACCELERATE QUICKLY. I NEVER HIT ANYONE BECAUSE I WAS CAREFUL, BUT I TOOK IT INTO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM DIAGNOSE IT. THEY CLAIMED TO KNOW OF THE PROBLEM BUT WOULD NOT COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY. I PAID OVER $1,000 TO HAVE THEM REPLACE MY "THROTTLE BODY." *TR

THE CAR HAD BEGUN SURGING HARD BOTH IN REVERSE AND FORWARD. IT HAPPENS WHEN STOPPING AND WHEN FIRST PUTTING IT IN GEAR. I'VE BEEN FORTUNATE TO HAVE NOT HIT ANYTHING YET, BUT I AM FEARFUL THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN. I'M SEEING A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM IN SEVERAL FORUMS AND WEBSITES. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. *TR

CAR SURGES ON ITS OWN, AFTER PUTTING IT INTO GEAR. *TR

BEFORE JULY 2010 I BEGAN NOTICING THAT MY ENGINE WOULD RACE UP TO 1500 RPM WHILE IDLING. I WOULD ALWAYS KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE SO THE CAR WOULD NOT LURCH FORWARD. THEN ON THE 4TH OF JULY MULTIPLE ENGINE ERRORS APPEARED ON THE CAR COMPUTER. THE FORD DEALER DIAGNOSED A THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTION. AFTER REPLACEMENT NO PROBLEM UNTIL JUNE 2012. ONCE AGAIN THE ENGINE IS RACING TO 2000 RPM WHILE IDLING AT A STOP. I AM SURE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ONGOING WITH SOME FORD PRODUCTS AND WILL SOME DAY OR HAS CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT IS NOT A CONSTANT RPM RATE BUT THE RPM GOES FROM 700 TO 2000. *TR

2006 FORD 500. THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY SURGE AT IDLE...IT ALSO SURGES DURING GEAR SHIFTS FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND PARK TO REVERSE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY SURGE FORWARD. THIS CAN LEAD TO DAMAGE OF THE VEHICLE OR INJURY TO A PEDESTRIAN. ARFC WEBSITE HAS 125 REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM. SEEMS TO GET WORSE AROUND THE 60-65,000 MILE RANGE....CONVENIENTLY OUT OF WARRANTY. TAKING CAR TO DEALER TODAY FOR EVALUATION AND REPAIR. *TR
