The car was idling very roughly, but when i pressed on the accelerator pedal nothing happened. There was no shoulder on the road so i had to stop in the middle of the road! I am so lucky that no one rear-ended me before i was able to maneuver off the road. I…

I was driving when i lost acceleration. A wrench light came up on my screen. Thankfully my brakes still worked and i was able to coast to a stop, almost getting rear ended by a semi, but then the whole motor started shaking and sputtering. I put my vehicle in park and turned it off. When i went to turn it back on it hesitated for a minute, but then started. This didn't happen again until a few weeks later while on…

While driving on the highway, my ford edge lost acceleration. The engine remained idling but would not accelerate. I had to coast over to the side of the road, turn the engine off and restart. It would run fine for a few miles then repeat. I managed to get it to a ford dealer who said it was a very common problem with the throttle body and it needed to be replaced but was not covered by my warranty. $610 later and…

This is now the seventh time i've lost all power while driving. The car completely shuts down, steering becomes uncontrollable and the oil pressure light comes on. I've taken to the dealership and i'm being told the car has no codes of what happened and they can't repair. I'm not sure how a computer doesn't register a low oil pressure light or how it's not hard coded somewhere in the computer system that the car…

The throttle body of this car was defective. I understand ford has this problem with this car and other cars with the same maker of the part. The car will suddenly lose all function of the accelerator. No power whatsoever. I see this as a safety issue as if this happened in an intersection, on the highway in a middle lane, the car and passengers are helpless to make the car accelerate until the car is stopped, put…
