Description of the problem	I am a homehealth nurse, i work in a very mountainous, rural area where i do not even have cellphone service. I was on a very narrow, curvy road, when the car just quit accelerating, the small wrench appeared on the dash, i was able to coast far enough to get to a wide spot where i could get the vehicle safely out of the road, barely missing an 18 wheel coal truck from hitting me. There was no warning, the vehicle drove fine all day and then it just quit. I was able to turn the car off and restart and attempted to drive it and again this happened 3 times before the check engine light finally came on. The nicest person in the world help me and he was able to detect the problem with his computer and he was able to adjust the throttle into the closed position and then i was able to get the vehicle home without anymore problems. I then took it to a ford dealership and had the throttle body replaced before i did get killed if this was to happen again. I do wish ford would just get this part recalled before someone does get killed.
