Description of the problem | While driving at highway speeds the engine revs up and losses power to the transmission as if it was out of gear. It also has happened and standing, i need to shut off the motor and reset it as to speak. The ford dealer has said that it is a throttle body issue, but i am scared to drive it down the highway for fear that i may be rear ended. I have found that there is a current investigation under way for throttle body failures and there is a current national back order on them. |
