Description of the problem | While driving 55 mph on the highway, accelerator suddenly stopped working, wrench light came on, and engine went into limp home mode. It was very unsafe trying to cross lanes to get off of highway as car slowed very rapidly. This is the same action associated with the well documented throttle body problem ford has had with other models. Once off the road, motor was shut off and restarted which made the problem go away but unfortunately erased any error codes that may have been generated. |
