 Description of the problemAfter approximately 100 feet of travel the engine suddenly braked so that we were traveling at around 6 mph. Throttle was not responsive. I returned home and parked the car and used another one. About an hour later the car started and performed normally. My pocket scanner showed obd2 code 2111, meaning the throttle actuator control was stuck open. I replaced the throttle body, including the actuator control that morning. The car has now run about a week and several hundred miles with no trouble. The number on the original throttle is 100053000805. The new one is ds7z*9e926*d, at least that is what it says on the ticket. I have the old part boxed up in case ford ever recalls it. The parts man at ford said that the throttle part number had been revised a couple of times. I am just glad that it went bad on a quiet street and not in heavy traffic. I am also glad that i could change it myself and not have to listen to run around.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
