Description of the problem | Driving at 60 mph orange light of death came on and completely lost power steering and speed . Car entered a limp home mode i let it come to a stop on side of road and it was shaking. I restarted and drove on to work, it worked fine.. Luckily noone was around me.. This is extremely dangerous for me and my kids. This is 3rd time it happened... Reading posts its definitely the electronic throttle body that is cheaply made.. The fusion, escape, etc have had an recall for this... But not the explorer.. Please pray for my family. |
