I had just started and was exiting a retail establishment. I was driving down a slight incline approaching a stop light when the car started shaking and dramatically lost speed. The wrench light came on which according to the manual indicates a possible powertrain/transmission issue. I turned the car off and then restarted (in the middle of the road) and drove to a safe location. I was lucky that at the time i was…

I was driving down the interstate and i pushed the gas pedal but the car would not accelerate. This happened twice within 2 miles. I took the car to a local garage and they said it was the throttle body. I took the vehicle to my local ford dealership and paid for it to be fixed because the car was no longer under warranty. Hopefully if there is a recall, i can get reimbursed for my repair bill. *tr

My wife and son were in the car and had stopped at a busy 4-way stop intersection. With no prior warning the car started to shake and the check engine light and battery light came on. The power steering was barely working and the car stalled just past the intersection. They were able to restart the car, but the minute the car was put in drive it would start shaking etc.... We had to have the car towed back to van…

After accelerating away from a stop-sign the engine abruptly began to run exceedingly poorly, and lost nearly all power. I was unable to accelerate or maintain speed. After pulling onto the shoulder and stopping i was able to restart the car, but attempts to drive it would result in stalling at about 5mph. After about perhaps 50 feet. The car was subsequently towed to the dealership where the throttle-body was…

As i was driving on the interstate the car rpm jumped and the car proceeded to shake a bit. When i tried to give the car gas nothing happened. We had to pull off to the side of the road, when the car began to shake much harder. We were forced to turn the car off, wait a moment a turn the car back on. It has done this two us a couple of times while we wait for the part to come in. *tr

Car loses power and stalls at city or highway speeds (have to pull over). Car shuts down when idling. Ford was contacted by our service center and we're told we need a new throttle body, but they are on back-order. There are at least 5000 orders ahead of us. Service person said he is not aware of a recall for this problem. Car was purchased new. *tr

While driving to my brother-in-law's house my car abruptly shut off not allowing me to push in the gas at all. The rpms were at 1. I came to a rolling stop and shut the car off. I restarted the car an drove 1/4 mile further and the car did the same thing. Luckily my husband was with me and felt it happen, he was able to limp it to the closest ford dealer where they told me my throttle body needed to be replaced at a…

We just bought the car the day before and as my son backed it out of the driveway the car lost power. After turning the engine off and on again he was able to drive the car normally. The car was driven without any problems for about two weeks. But after about two weeks, the car was being driven at about 40mph when it suddenly lost power. After coasting to the side of the road and turning the engine off and on again…

I was driving on the highway at about 70 mph. The car suddenly shut down and started coasting. Pressing the gas pedal did nothing. The throttle control/transmission warning light came on. I coasted off of the highway and turned off my car. I turned the car back on, warning light was gone, car drove fine the rest of the way to my destination. Next morning the exact same thing happened. Stopped at an auto repair shop.…

Car died at cruising speeds and almost caused an accident. I feel it is dangerous for me to continue driving this vehicle even though it is almost new. I was told this is the throttle body? *tr

Car engine shut off at 40 mph , step on gas nothing happens. Car jerks and sputters. Must pull to side of road and shut off engine. Wait 2 minutes and try to restart. Returned to dealer without success 3 times. Car has shut off 6 times since at different speeds and heavy traffic. A real safety hazard! *jb

While on highway the vehicle stuttered, lost all throttle power (no acceleration) and the wrench light came on. Had to pull over to the nearest shoulder while losing speed. Once stopped the car jittered and tugged and continued to do so even while in park! After turning the vehicle off and then waiting a while, it started up without the issue and without the wrench light on. After taking it to the ford dealership…

Throttle body faults w/out warning (ford part 9e926). When driving at highway speed the engine light (wrench) appeared and the car abruptly lost acceleration decreasing immediately from 70 mph to approx 10 mph in high speed interstate traffic. Engine idle bounced between 1.5 and 3.5 rpm causing the car to jerk and feel like it was going to stall. I was driving with my 5 year old son and was almost rear ended and…

The car has died unexpectedly. The wrench and engine light will go on, it did it once on july 27, aug. 24 and 25 and on sept 4, it died twice on the freeway in rush hour traffic. The ford service dept. Diagnosed it as a "faltering throttle box". There is a wait of a month for these. *jb

Driving down a six lane highway at 50 mph, car suddenly shuts down, barely idling. Was fortunate enough to get over to the side of the road where the car stalled. Was towed to a shop where the problem was misdiagnosed as a bad battery. New battery put in and same problem happened 36 hours later. Computer was checked this time and was giving a p2111 error code which is a stuck throttle body sensor. Could have been a…

Throttle body shorted battery and caused engine to stall in traffic. When trying to restart, engine sped up fast became very dangerous. Ford has these throttle bodys on back order... That's sad. Pls recall asap before someone loses their life. *tr

Just adding to the list. Twice in the past two weeks my husband has experienced the same issue as everyone else posting a safety complaint about their 2010 ford fusion. He found himself not able to accelerate while driving on the highway. The first time he brought the car into a ford dealership. They found no issue, and apparently are not aware of the overall issue. This morning (after the second occurrence) he…
