Description of the problem	Was driving at speed of 65 on hwy on 5/3/2013 when vehicle lost all power, wrench light illuminated and vehicle came almost to complete stop although i had the accelerator completely depressed. Could only drive about 1 mile per hour. Pulled to side of road and tried to drive to repair shop but could not safely drive so stopped and called road side assistance. They suggested i call ford motor company and when i contacted them they instructed me to turn off engine and restart which i did, wrench light went out and was then able to proceed home. Took vehicle to ford motor repair shop and they could not find anything wrong with vehicle and they did not tell me there have been any problems with make/model. Talked to another repair shop and learned according to a technical bulletin there have been problems with throttle body of 2010 ford escapes manufactured from june 2009 to october 2009. This problem part was subsequently fixed on models manufactured after that time. Mine was manufactured in september 2009. This needs to be fixed on all vehicles in the identified manufactured dates since it has obviously been identified by the ford company and ford repair shops should advise owners of the problem. I have no other means of transportation and live in the memphis area where there is heavy interstate traffic i can not safely drive this car in multiple lane traffic since it may suddenly lose power to 1-2 mph in the middle of 70 mph traffic.
