Description of the problem | At night, while stopped on red traffic light waiting for change to green, the vehicle stalls an shut off. Did not start right over until a while. All dashboard panel lights were on. After 45 minutes tried to start it and it just move very, very slow and did not accelerate until it died again a 100 feet farther. We call road assistance to take us home in a towing truck. At the other day we call the towing truck again to take the suv to the dealer since it was in warranty, when we start it before leaving it was working fine. The service tech at ford tell us that probably it is the throttle body since other people has been having the same issue. They test it and they say that nothing is wrong... My warranty is about to expire and i think that they are playing us to take the unit home and when it happen again charge us for the cost of the part... $$$$ very expensive!!! This is a hazardous issue since it can happen while driving it can cause an accident or lost of life. |
