“We have had numerous incidents with our Excursion dating back to one week after we purchased it used from a local Ford dealership in july 2009 until now - sept. 2012. We began experiencing acceleration issues after the first week. We returned the vehicle to the dealership for a diagnostic evaluation. They replaced the ipr and fuel pump. This seemed to fix the problem until january 2011. In january 2011, the accelerator began failing again. It would just stop working. The car would crank initially and then fail to recrank if turned off within a short amount of time (I.e. Driving to the store). …”
