Description of the problem | 6/26/13 - driving in the right lane on interstate 81 in pennsylvania at approximately 65 miles per hour and engine completely lost power. A large truck was behind me and i immediately put my four way flashers on. Luckily there were no vehicles in the left lane and the truck changed lanes. Additional vehicles were coming upon my vehicle quickly so i pulled over on the berm at about 40 mph and applied the brakes and stopped. Turned off the car and restarted and problem went away and continued on trip. Problem happened again the next day 6/27/13 driving on interstate 81 at approximately 65 mph. Same problem where engine completely lost power. I put on my four way flashers and approaching traffic started moving to the left lane. Pulled over to the berm and shut the car off. Restarted and tried to pull out. Problem happened again. Shutoff and restarted and was then able to pull out and finish trip. This is the fourth time in less than a month that this has occurred. After the first time i contacted ford and ordered a new throttle body. Part is on back order and keep being told next week. Ford made me give them a credit card to order the part and has charged my account but has not given me the part. |
