Reported on July 26, 2013
| MULTIPLE INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WILL BE CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THEN LOSE ALL ENGINE POWER AND THE CAR BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. I NEED TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP WHEREVER I AM, INCLUDING BUSY TRAFFIC. THE CAR CONTINUES TO SHAKE WHILE SHIFTING INTO PARK. AFTER IN PARK, I TURN THE CAR OFF, WAIT 30 SECONDS, THEN START IT AGAIN. THE SHAKING CEASES UPON RESTARTING, AND WILL DRIVE FINE FOR 5-10 MINUTES BEFORE REPEATING THE INCIDENT OVER AGAIN AND LOSING ALL ENGINE POWER. A FORD DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAILED THROTTLE BODY. THE REPAIR COST OVER $500. *TR | |
