Ford Fusion Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | Sept 14, 2013
Reported on Sept 14, 2013
| MY CAR STALLED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY (21 N). LUCKILY I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE AND COULD COAST OFF TO THE SIDE. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND IT WAS FINE. IT HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES; ONE WHILE GOING TO WORK AND YESTERDAY WHEN DROPPING MY ELDERLY MOTHER OFF AT HER HOME. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE HIGHWAY TO WORK AS THERE IS A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION AND NOWHERE TO TURN OFF THE ROAD SHOULD IT HAPPEN AGAIN. I AM NOW SITTING AT THE FORD SHOP AND THEY TELL ME IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY AND WILL COST $560 TO FIX. THIS CAR IS BARELY THREE YEARS OLD AND I AM A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED TO FIND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR PART WITHOUT A RESOLUTION. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING IN MY CAR. *TR | |
