Description of the problem | While driving at any speed, the car will suddenly stop accelerating. Once you are able to get completely stopped and turn the car off and restart it, it will do ok until the same thing happens again with no warning. When in traffic or with no place to pull off or coast to, this is extremely dangerous. Has happened to me about 10-20 in the past 2 -3 years. After researching online, i read many of the same situations. Took to local dealer and they diagnosed it as the throttle body and said there were numerous explorers with the same problem. |
