2006 Ford Five Hundred Fuel system Problems

“Electronic throttle body stoppped working. Car abruptly lost all power in busy traffic, lucky to be alive. I was driving in the left lane and all of a sudden all power was gone and the car wouldn't go! I had it diagnosed by aaa repair shop in los angeles. Have to pay 900 to get new throttle body unit.”

“Door froze shut and ever since manually opening the message center states driver door ajar and passenger door ajar and they are not. But I can't reset driver controls until doors show closed. Have run code in my car and only code is p0193 fuel rail pressure sensor. No codes for doors.”

“The engine surges when you put in drive or reverse. This is very dangerous. This is my wife's car and this problem has me concerned about her safety every time she gets in this car. I thought about getting rid of it but I couldn't let someone else have a car with this dangerous problem. I hope someone can find out what the remedy is for this problem. Please help.”

“Vehicle was stalling out finally quit, had it towed to a Ford dealer, was advise that the throttlebody had shorted out. They say it is not covered under the warranty. The engine was replace by the Ford dealership due to a manufacture defect 6 years ago. The vehicle has less that 50,000 miles on. What estimate cost of repairing is $970.00. We have an extended warranty coverage. But I think for should fix it without charge.”

“I would be stopped at a stop sign or red light and would push on the throttle to accelerate. The guy would not move at first then would jump and accelerate quickly. I never hit anyone because I was careful, but I took it into a Ford dealership to have them diagnose it. They claimed to know of the problem but would not cover it under warranty. I paid over $1,000 to have them replace my throttle body.”
