Description of the problem | I was driving approximately 40 mph and went to accelerate, but when i hit the gas the car stalled and i had to pull to the side of the road and restart the car. The vehicle did this 4 times in the next three days. Sometimes it would happen at higher speed and sometimes it would happen when i was just getting going. It turns out that i had a defective throttle body which is apparently a common problem in ford escapes. |
