TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THERE WERE ABNORMAL FUMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOVELAND FORD (999 E. EISENHOWER BLVD, LOVELAND, CO 80537) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE UNDERCOATING AND MUFFLER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000.

DRIVING ON A CITY STREET ABOUT TO GET ONTO A HIGHWAY CAR STARTED TO STUMBLE THEN DIED OUT. WE GOT IT STARTED BACK UP BUT NO THROTTLE. HAD IT TOWED BACK HOME. I HOOKED UP AN OBD2 CODE READER AND THE CODES WERE P2112 AND P2111 ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. I FOUND SOME INFO ONLINE LIKE A RECALIBRATION TEST ( KEY ON, PRESS PEDAL DOWN SLOWLY THEN RELEASE SLOWLY, THEN TURN KEY OFF). STARTED BACK UP LIKE THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS 38,000 MILES THIS SEAMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE, IF WE WERE TO TURN IN FRONT OF SOMEONE AND IT DIED OUT WE COULD OF GOT HIT!!! I WILL BE TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED, CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (70 MPH), WENT TO PASS TRAFFIC, TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED, SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON AND TRUCK LOST ALL POWER. TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK IN 4TH GEAR AND ENGINE WOULD NOT REV ABOVE IDLE. PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF TRUCK. RESTARTED AND EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. A FEW DAYS LATER SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN, THIS TIME WAS ON A CITY STREET (20MPH) AND TRANS WAS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 FORD EXPEDITION HOME FROM WORK, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL GAS POWER TO THE VEHICLE. MY STEERING STILL WORKED AND POWER WAS STILL ON BUT I HAD NO GAS. I PULLED OVER, TURNED MY ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED AND COULD GO AGAIN. IT TOOK 6 TIMES TO RESTART TO GET 2 MILES TO SAFE POINT. WHERE I THEN HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. TURNS OUT IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. WHICH IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE FORD ENGINE, THE NHTSA HAD ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THAT FORD ISSUED A MANDATORY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 4 OTHER TYPE FORD VEHICLES BUT NOT THE EXPEDITION, WHICH HAS THE SAME TYPE OF ENGINE. I HAD TO PAY $560.00 TO HAVE THIS PART REPLACED ON MY VEHICLE WHEN IT'S A KNOWN FORD ISSUE. MY VEHICLE HAD 50,700 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE. I HOPE THAT THE NHTSA WILL LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FORD EXPAND THEIR MAKE AND MODEL WARRANTY AS WELL AS REIMBURSE ME FOR MY EXPENSES FOR THIS REPLACEMENT.

1/28/17 DRIVING 65 MPH ON A FLORIDA HIGHWAY (NOT ON CRUISE CONTROL) THE THROTTLE/GAS PEDDLE SENSOR (THROTTLE BODY) SHUTS OFF THE GAS TO THE ENGINE AND THE CAR SLOWS TO A STOP. THIS IS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WE MANAGE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AND THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARS FOR ANOTHER 50 MILES WE DRIVE THE CAR TO A FORD DEALER AND THEY REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY FOR $500. I AM . OUT OF WARRANTY = OVER 36,000 MILES I TELL MY STORY TO 2 ST LOUIS FRIENDS, ALSO OWN FORDS (2006 EXPLORER, 2008 EDGE) AND THEY SAY THAT THEY HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE AND NECESSARY REPAIR. I JUST NOTIFIED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE 800-392-3673 AND THEY SAY THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL OR ISSUE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND HAS BEEN IGNORED BY FORD FOR YEARS. I ALSO OWNED A TOYOTA DURING THEIR SUDDEN ACCELERATION PROBLEM A FEW YEARS AGO AND THIS SEEMS WORSE
