Description of the problem | As we were driving on a residential side street, going about 25mph, coming up a slight incline, the car stopped accelerating. We were able to get it to the side of the road. We turned it off and on and nothing happened. About 10-15 minutes later the engine started but would not accelerate. We were only able to go about 2mph. We were able to get it to a mechanical shop nearby. The next morning when they pulled the vehicle in, they experienced the same issue. When the turned it off and back on to do more tests the car was working "fine." the shop inspected it and did note the potential throttle body issue but as the vehicle was now running it could not be property diagnosed. We have taken it to a ford dealer and the same information was given to us. We have confirmed through friends who have a 2011 ford that they received a customer satisfaction letter from ford noting the issue with the throttle body and losing acceleration. When ford customer care was contacted they note the problem but "not" with our year vehicle. The service personnel at ford have confirmed this will likely happen again and note it is a problem on other ford vehicles as well and we were advised to "drive" it into ford the next time it happens. This is clearly a problem across many years of ford vehicles, yet they do not want to take responsibility for it or put out a recall on an issue that is all over the internet with similar experiences. |
