“Throttle body and motor asy I replaced this on 2/13/2016, later found out there was a recall and was reimbursed in 2014 but on 2/26/2018 it went out again an replaced at my out of pocket again. I ask is this a fix or just a replacement no one will answer me. This is dangerous, the car just stops no power, if in heavy traffic could be hit from the rear, not good. Is the replacement a fix oe just a replacement?”

NHTSA complaint #10820604, filed 2016-01, 56,000 miles

“While driving down the highway, my 2011 Ford EDGE lost all acceleration and the awd warning light came on with the lighted symbol of a wrench. I was almost rear ended by several cars before I could make it side of road. I had to shut vehicle completely down and restart. This problem continued for several more times. Ford needs to address this problem before several people get killed.”

NHTSA complaint #10876920, filed 2016-06, 38,000 miles

“While accelerating from a red light, my 2011 Ford EDGE became unresponsive and would not accelerate, as if going limp. Car then rode rough and sputtered as we pulled over on the side of the road. After turning off the engine I restarted the car and all was fine. I had it towed to the dealership who diagnosed the problem as a faulty throttle body.”

NHTSA complaint #10598015, filed 2014-06, 32,000 miles

“Car almost shuts down, you can drive it at 1 MPH or restart & it works fine. Engine light does come on. Had it towed to dealership & they couldn't find anything wrong. We are both handicap, it's are only car & shuts off daily. Dealership can not do anything unless we bring it, take a mechanic with us & it happens while he is in the car!!”
