 Description of the problemI was on the right hand lane on highway when vehicle all of sudden lost power and would not accelerate. Almost rear ended due to sudden loss of power. Once i pulled over and waited a few seconds it started back up. After exiting and waiting at a red light and then proceeding through the intersection on green to make a left hand turn the vehicle again lost power. This has happened on at least three other occasions. When i first took vehicle to mechanic they tell me that they could not find anything wrong and after the third occurrence the wrench light finally came on and now i'm told its the throttle that shows to be stuck in open. I have been given the price from $750-$1000 for parts and labor. No recall as of todays date. The auto mechanic at the ford dealership tells me that there has been complaints but no recall so i would have to pay to have this fix. I own another ford vehicle a 2004. Never had a problem and very reliable, this is extremely frustrating and bad business for customer relations when there are so many complaints about the same issue that it is obvious for this particular part the is a defect. There should be recall. This may be my last ford vehicle.

  • 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.

    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.
