I HAD COME TO A STOP LIGHT AND WAS TURNING RIGHT WHEN THE CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE. SECOND TIME ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER I WAS TURNING ONTO A ENTRANCE RAMP TO AN INTERSTATE AND WAS ACCELERATING WHEN IT WENT INTO LIMP MODE. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TWO WEEKS LATER. ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO I WAS IDLING WHEN THE CAR TOTALLY CUT OFF. I RESTARTED IT DROVE 5 MILES AND IT WENT INTO LIMP MODE WHEN I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT. YESTERDAY IT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DOING A STEADY 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. TODAY WHEN I WAS DOING 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. EACH TIME, I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR WHICH RAN NORMALLY AFTER THAT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A MODERATELY TRAVELED ROAD, MY VEHICLE LOST POWER WHERE WHEN I PUSHED ON THE ACCELERATOR (NOTHING HAPPENED). I WAS ABLE TO GET PULLED OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SOME WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED ON MY DASH. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND IT SEEMED TO BE OKAY (NO WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH) AND I PROCEEDED HOME. THE FOLLOWING MORNING IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PULL AWAY FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT ON A BUSIER ROAD. I MANAGED TO GET OFF THE ROAD, TURNED IT OFF AND TRIED RESTARTING IT. ONCE I GOT IT RESTARTED, I HEADED STRAIGHT FOR THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS BEING THE THROTTLE BODY. MY ISSUE IS THAT IT CAN COMPLETELY CATCH THE DRIVER OFF GUARD AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE IS NOT VERY OLD AND THE MANUFACTURER SEEMS TO BE CONTROLLING THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE PART (ONLY SO MANY RELEASED AT A TIME). IT TOOK OVER A WEEK TO GET MY CAR BACK FOR WHAT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE AS READ IN FORUMS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THE ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS TO BE REVIEWED FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL. *TR

INDICATOR LIGHT FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WAS ON. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED, AFTER WHICH THE VEHICLE RAN FINE AGAIN. HOWEVER, AFTER DRIVING FOR A FEW MORE MILES, CAR DID THE SAME THING.

ON JUNE 18, 2013 WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK I WAS STOPPED A YIELD SIGN WAITING FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR WHICH WOULD ALLOW ME TO ENTER A MAIN ROAD. WHEN TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND BEGAN TO PROCEED. WITHIN ONE OR TWO SECONDS I LOST ALL POWER IN MY ACCELERATOR AND THE RPMS WERE NOT MOVING IN MY DASHBOARD. AS I STEERED MY VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD MY CAR BEGAN TO JERK AS I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK; ROUGHLY 100 FEET FROM WHERE I PULLED FROM. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THE WRENCH ON THE DASHBOARD TURN ON WHEN MY VEHICLE CAME TO REST. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND PUT MY HAZARDS ON. I WAITED SEVERAL SECONDS THEN TURN THE CAR ON. IT HAD TROUBLE STARTING BUT DID START. I NOTICED THE WRENCH ON AGAIN BUT IT QUICKLY TURNED OFF. IF THE ROAD WAS NOT CLEAR WHEN I PULLED FROM THE YIELD SIGN I WOULD HAVE CAUSED AND ACCIDENT AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE AND PROCEEDING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 1 MILE THE VEHICLE HAD THE SAME SEQUENCE OF LOSING POWER IN THE ACCELERATOR AND JERKING TO A STOP AS I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. THIS TIME THE ROAD HAD WIDENED TO A TOW LANE ROAD OVERPASS OF AN INTERSTATE. MY VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP JUST BEFORE THE ENTRANCE TO THE INTERSTATE. THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT IS 35 MPH BUT PEOPLE TYPICALLY ACCELERATE TO 50 MPH PREPARING TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY. COMING TO A STOP BEFORE THE INTERSTATE ON RAMP THANKFULLY DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BUT DID CAUSE A SMALL TRAFFIC SLOW DOWN AS I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AGAIN I WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE WITH A LITTLE TROUBLE AND THIS TIME I NOTICED THE WRENCH AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. AFTER DROPPING MY VEHICLE OFF ON JUNE 19, 2013 I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP ADVISING THE ISSUE WAS RELATED TO THE THROTTLE BODY AND THAT IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I AUTHORIZED THE WORK BECAUSE I NEED A RELIABLE CAR AND DO NOT WANT TO FEAR FOR MY SAFETY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *TR

GOT OFF WORK, DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND THE CAR SPUTTERED, WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND WHEN I PRESS THE GAS, NOTHING HAPPENS. COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND IT SPUTTERED SOME MORE AND SHUTS OFF. FORD KEEPS MAKING REPAIRS TO MY CAR SAYING THEY'VE FIXED IT BUT IT'S NOT FIXED. NOW I HAVE $1,200 IN REPAIR BILLS AND NO CAR.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 40MPH MY CAR FELT LIKE IT DIED, IT WAS STILL RUNNING BUT UNRESPONSIVE. THERE WAS HEAVY TRAFFIC AND I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE BECAUSE I WAS IN AN AREA WHERE THERE WERE NO SHOULDERS TO COAST TO. ONCE I STOPPED, I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT, IT RAN FINE AND ACTED NORMAL FOR A FEW DAYS, AND IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING ON THE SAME STRETCH OF HIGHWAY THAT I USE EVERY DAY. ONLY THIS TIME IT KEPT HAPPENING ABOUT EVERY 15 TO 20 MIN. IT IS AT THE FORD DEALER NOW AND THEY ARE TELLING ME IT HAS A BAD THROTTLE BODY AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THEY ARE REPLACING SO MANY RIGHT NOW THAT THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND I MIGHT HAVE TO WAIT 3 OR 4 WEEKS. SO NOT ONLY AM I OUT SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS BUT I DON'T KNOW WHEN ILL GET MY CAR BACK. FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY, THEY SHOULD BE REPLACING THIS FOR FREE. ITS A DEFECTIVE PART. AND IT IS NOT VERY CHEAP. PLUS THEY ARE CHARGING ME $130.00 AN HOUR TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM THAT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE IS ALREADY AWARE OF.

WHEN RESTARTED I HAD NO ODEMETER OR GAS MILEAGE INDICATOR ON DASH. DID ANOTHER 2 TIMES UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION, APPROX 3 -5 MILES AWAY. I WAS OUT OF TOWN WHEN HAPPENED AND I CALLED MY FORD DEALER AND EXPLAINED AND THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED HE WAS 95% SURE IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY.

WHILE DRIVING, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTIONED, CAUSING MY CAR TO START TO LOSE SPEED RAPIDLY. I WAS IN INTERSTATE TRAFFIC, MAKING THIS ISSUE THAT MUCH MORE DANGEROUS. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE WITHOUT HEAVY TRAFFIC AND COULD PULL SAFELY OFF OF THE ROAD. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE THEN. IT SEEMED TO BE AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, BUT HAS NOW PUT MY CAR OUT OF COMMISSION UNTIL IT IS FIXED. THE COST OF REPAIR IS OVER $400. UPON RESEARCHING THIS, I FOUND THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD SEEMS TO KNOW ABOUT, BUT WILL NOT COVER UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I HAVE BECAUSE IT IS AN "EMISSIONS" PART. I MUST STATE THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY CAR AND LIKE THE WAY IT DRIVES, BUT AM DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED SINCE IT IS COMMON ENOUGH FOR THE DEALER TO KNOW WHAT IT IS BEFORE EVEN LOOKING AT THE CAR. I ALSO MUST SAY THAT MY DEALER HAS DEALT WITH ME FAIRLY AND HONESTLY THROUGH THE WHOLE PROCESS. *TR

I FELT THE CAR SUDDENLY LOSE POWER AND WAS ABLE TO LIMP OVER TO THE SHOULDER WITH TRACTOR TRAILERS AND EARLY MORNING TRAFFIC WHIZZING PAST. I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, AND STARTED THE CAR UP AGAIN. I DROVE IT THE REST OF THE WAY TO WORK & CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT & WAS ABLE TO DROP IT OFF, EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I WENT ONLINE & FOUND NUMEROUS INSTANCES OF THIS ON THE FORD FUSION FORUM AND FOUND CASE AFTER CASE, NATIONWIDE, OF THE THROTTLE BODY & ASSEMBLY ISSUE BEING THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART WAS ON BACK ORDER AS THERE HAD BEEN A "RASH OF INCIDENTS." I ASKED WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL & THEY SAID THAT IT HAS TO "RISE TO A CERTAIN LEVEL." REALLY? THIS HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN GOING ON FOR SOME TIME--DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE? I CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE PART WAS FINALLY REPLACED. I STILL DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE VEHICLE, AND I KNOW THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS OUT THERE WHO DON'T EVEN REALIZE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. *TR

I HAD JUST STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN, I PROCEEDED TO THE RAMP TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY 2010 FORD FUSION SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I MANAGED TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AND COASTED INTO A PARKING LOT. IT TOOK 3 TIMES OF TRYING TO RE-START IT. FINALLY STARTED AND TAKING ALL SIDE ROADS, I MADE IT HOME. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE THEN, BUT LAST FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 2013, I HAD LEFT THE GROCERY STORE WITH A TRUNK FULL OF GROCERIES, AND HAD TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ONTO THE HWY. IT DIED ON THE TURN AND SHOOK WORSE THAN EVER. I MANAGED TO ONCE AGAIN COAST TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD INTO A PARKING LOT. THIS HAPPENED AT LEAST 7 OR 8 TIMES BEFORE I GOT HOME THAT DAY. IT HAS SCARED ME SO BAD, I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. *TR

THIS GOES ON REPEATEDLY AT ALL SPEEDS BUT USUALLY WORSE WHEN ABOVE 50 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND ESPECIALLY WHEN APPLYING SLIGHT PRESSURE TO GAS PEDAL WHETHER CARE IS ALREADY MOVING OR AT STOP THE CAR ENGINE JUST STOPS AND LITTLE WRENCH SIGN COMES ON AND YOU COAST TO STOP AND THEN HAVE TO RESTART. ( I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE SEVERAL BATTERIES DUE TO ALL THIS RESTARTING) . ALSO THIS SEEMS TO BE TRIGGERED OR AGGRAVATED WHEN YOU HIT SLIGHT BUMP IN ROAD. THIS OCCURS THE LEAST NUMBER OF TIMES ON DAYS WHEN WE LEAVE IN DRIVEWAY. WE DON'T TAKE CARE ON HIGHWAY ANYMORE FOR OBVIOUS SAFETY REASONS. FOR EXAMPLE DRIVING AROUND TOWN IN ATLANTA TODAY IT DOES THIS AND STOPS BETWEEN 20 AND 40 TIMES PER HOUR. NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO EXPLAIN OVER THE PAST YEAR THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON. THIS IS AGGRAVATING SINCE SOMETIMES IT WILL HAPPEN IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS. FORD OF COURSE IS CLUELESS AND NOT HELPFUL HAVING SUGGESTED THAT PERHAPS IT WAS BAD GAS OR CAUSED BY USING OFF AIR CONDITIONING TOO MUCH SINCE THIS IS ATLANTA. OF COURSE IT IS NEITHER SINCE WE HAVE TRIED MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS AND IT HAPPENS WHEN AC IS NOT ON.. I THINK HENRY FORD HAD THE ENGINEERING BETTER ON THE MODEL T BUT WE OWN IT NOW AND WE ARE NOW STUCK WITH IT. NO MORE AMERICAN CARS FOR THIS FORMER MICHIGAN RESIDENT. LOYALTY TO DETROIT IS NOT MUTUAL. *TR

CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE WHILE DRIVING, MOSTLY ON THE HIGHWAY. WRENCH LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND POWER WAS LOST. AFTER PULLING OVER, TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN, IT DROVE JUST FINE LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. THIS HAPPENED 7 TIMES OVER 2 MONTHS. BROUGHT THE CAR TO LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD I NEEDED THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED. THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER, SO I NEEDED TO WAIT ABOUT 3 WEEKS TO GET THE REPAIR. COST WAS $550.00. *TR

MY 2010 FORD FUSION (40000 MILES) SUDDENLY BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT STALLED AND WOULD NO LONGER MOVE UNTIL IT WAS SHUT OFF AND CRANKED BACK UP. I HAD TO MANEUVER MY WAY OFF THE HIGHWAY BY COASTING. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT I HAD GOTTEN SOME BAD GAS. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. IT RECENTLY STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING UNDER A RED LIGHT. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO COAST OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENS YOU ARE WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND MOVE OFF THE ROAD. YOU MUST DEPEND ENTIRELY ON COASTING TO SAFETY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP THIS MORNING . THEY SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT WOULD POSSIBLY TAKE 8 WEEKS TO GET A NEW ONE SINCE SO MANY ARE BEING NEEDED. WHY HAS FORD NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS DANGEROUS PART? I HAVE READ MANY ACCOUNTS ONLINE OF OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. I AM VERY THANKFUL THAT I WAS NOT HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HOPE THAT IT DOES NOT TAKE SOMEONE GETTING INJURED FOR FORD TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR
