Description of the problem | Driving down road at 55mph, suddenly the gas pedal was unresponsive (no power) . Pulled to the side of road, shut car down and waited approx. 5 min. Then restarted car. Ran ok. Since then this has been a recurring event. Recently stalled on railroad tracks as my wife was driving to work. Would like to see ford step up and recall before someone losses their life in an accident. This is a fairly expensive repair,approx. $650 from what we've read on line. Seems to be happening with more frequency since first occurrence. |
