2010 Ford ESCAPE Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The vehicle's accelerator (gas) pedal randomly stops working resulting in immediate loss of speed and power to the engine. Accelerator is unresponsive and vehicle will sputter/crawl to 5 mph until ignition is turned off and car restarted. After restart, vehicle runs normal until problem occurs again (sometimes within minutes). Problem occurs randomly as little as 1 time per trip to as many as 8 times in a 25 minute commute. Problem occurred 12 times the other day with many of them on a multilane interstate while traveling 65 mph in the far left lane with nowhere to quickly pull-off the road. Very dangerous when it occurs on the interstate and you quickly have to maneuver to change lanes and pull off the road or risk coming to a stop in the middle of a busy highway. This problem also causes the vehicle to sometimes run rough and negatively impact the emissions. The error code from the vehicle's computer is p2112 which is related to the throttle body. I have researched this problem on the internet and discovered it's an extremely common and very serious problem with this vehicle. A recall needs to be issued before someone gets killed.
