Example complaints

“When I go to put my car I park and take my foot off the break the car will roll forward several feet or if I am on a hill it will roll backward several feet. When I am driving on the highway the car will just stop accelerating at 80mph. On several occasions I was trying to get around a truck and the car just stopped accelerating almost causing an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #11074419, filed 2018-02, 100,000 miles“On several occasions I have been driving when suddenly my car loses power and enters limp-home mode and a wrench flashes on the dash that says see manual. This seems to be a common issue affecting the electronic throttle body on fords made around the same year. This has happened to me turning in the middle of an intersection and while trying to accelerate on the highway which could easily lead to an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #11337729, filed 2020-07, 99,000 miles“Traveling on secondary road and experienced sudden power loss. Awd off message appeared on screen, along with wrench icon. I managed to limp onto the shoulder (thank god I was not on the highway). Car would not rev up or move. I turned the engine off, and restarted it. Everything seemed to be fine at that point, but I am very afraid of this happening during my daily commute on a busy highway.”
NHTSA complaint #11104553, filed 2018-06, 71,000 miles“I was slowly turning right into a gas station when my vehicle died. The steering froze and nothing worked. Thankfully I was able to coast into the gas station where I put the car in park, turned it off, and then back on. It started fine. If I had been on the highway, I would be dead!!!! This is incredibly dangerous!!!!”
NHTSA complaint #11006067, filed 2017-07, 50,000 miles“Twice now within two days, my wife or I have been driving along at 20-30 MPH through the neighborhood and the vehicle has lost propulsion. I say this because the motor stays running, but doesn't accept input from the gas petal. Service wrench comes on, but vehicle diagnostics come back ok. Turn vehicle off, cranks up and drives fine. The interwebs says its a throttle body issue.”
