My wife ,who is three months pregnant, was driving down the road when the wrench light came on and vehicle lost power and went into what i am hearing is "limp mode". The car losses power , never shuts off, it reduces the rpms to about 600 and speed to about 10 to 12 mph. When this happened to her she just barely got off the road before an 18 wheeler hit her from behind. When i arrived on scene i cut the vehicle off…

Car randomly goes into "limp home" mode. Code could not be caught by dealer so i purchased a scanner. Code caught everytime is p2111 representing that the throttle body actuator is stuck open.

It can happen once or every few minutes. This is very…

When driving down the street all of a sudden it won't accelerate although the engine is still running. I had it towed to a ford dealership the first time it happened. They told me nothing was wrong. It has been doing it sporadically since then but got so bad the other day i had to have it towed in again. This time they replaced the throttle body. If they had caught it the first time while it was under warranty i…

My daughter was almost hit by an 18-wheeler on the bypass going about 50 mph. Sometimes, it will do this one time per day, sometimes every few minutes. I have only had this car 2 months when this problem began. I have contacted a dealership…

Received error code p2111, the car will bog down without notice and i cannot accelerate. This happens often and it does not matter if i am going slow or fast. The research i have done shows this to be a faulty throttle body. I found a website which shows "affected owners should contact ford and mention consumer satisfaction program 13n03." i plan on calling joe myers ford in houston, tx tomorrow 3/5/14. *tr

I was pulling out from a business on to a major highway. There were no warnings, suddenly the car just would not go forward. I was in the middle, crosswise of the road. I finally got the car to go forward in little increments until i got off the road. The motor was still running but very little forward movement from the car. I had it towed to the dealership and they said it was the throttle body that had gone bad.…
