Description of the problem	While driving on the washington, dc beltway (i-95) in prince george's county, md, the car lost acceleration completely. There was no response at all to pressing the accelerator. I coasted to the left shoulder, left the car running in park, and called ford customer service who called a tow truck, and we took the car to jerry's ford in alexandria, va. I researched the "throttle body" online, which jerry's ford said today was the affected part. I see that there are many recall issues with the part sticking open or closed or causing decreased acceleration capabilities. Jerry's told me the part is not included in the engine/powertrain 60,000-mile warranty. My car has only 44,275 miles. I was told the repair will be over $650. I think it should be under warranty as there have been thousands of complaints and it is a major safety issue to completely lose acceleration on fast-flowing highway. Also, i tried typing "throttle body" in the parts list and it didn't come up. If someone knows the exact part affected, it should come up on the list. Or else you should include some guidance on what major systems to list, otherwise this electronic form cannot be submitted.
