MY CAR WOULD DIE WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON JUST TO CRAWL INTO A PARKING LOT, SO I HAD IT TOWED AND THE COMPUTERIZED ENGINE DIAGNOSTICS AT THE NAPA AUTO CARE CENTER SHOWED A MALFUNCTION OF THE THROTTLE BODY.THIS REPAIR COST ME $726.32

I WAS DRIVING IN THE EXPRESSWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY MY CAR LOST POWER ON THE ACCELERATION. A WRENCH TOOL APPEAR AND THE DASHBOARD ON THE RPM CLOCK ... AT THAT MOMENT THE CAR DESACCELERATE ALMOST TO 30 MPH AND I WAS UNABLE TO GAIN SPEED. I WENT TO A SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN IT OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. EVERYTHING APPEAR TO BE NORMAL BUT THE FIRST THING I DID WAS GO TO THE DEALER. THEY RUN A TEST ON IT AND TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RELATED TO THE ELECTEIC THROTTLE BODY. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW IS POSSIBLE TO HAPPEND SOMETHING LIKE THAT WHEN MY CAR BARELY HAS 4 YEARS. THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON OT AND THE REPAIR FOR IT IS REALLY EXPENSIVE.

WHILE ENTERING THE FREEWAY IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, MY CAR WENT INTO "LIMP MODE", THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AS DID THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY, TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES IN THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS- MOSTLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. IT IS VERY SCARY TO BE DRIVING ON A HOUSTON FREEWAY, HAVE THIS HAPPEN AND NEED TO SAFELY MANEUVER A VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY, OFTEN CROSSING SEVERAL LANES OF TRAFFIC WHEN VEHICLES ARE MOVING AT 40-55 MPH AND I HAVE NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY TO RESTART MY CAR BECAUSE I WAS NOT ABLE TO SAFELY CHANGE LANES. IT WAS A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE AND I WAS AFRAID I WOULD BE RE-ENDED BY MOTORIST DRIVING AT POSTED SPEEDS. WHEN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, ALONG WITH THE MARINER'S, ESCAPES, FOCUS ETC, I HAVE FOUND THAT MANY FORD MUSTANGS HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. GIVEN THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION, THE COST INVOLVED IN REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, FORD'S LONG HISTORY OF VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODIES, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE 2012 MUSTANG OR ANY OTHER FORD PRODUCT WITH THIS ISSUE ARE NOT AUTOMATICALLY ELIGIBLE FOR THE "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" WHICH FIXES THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT TRUST THIS CAR AND NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN IT.

ENTERING INTO TRAFFIC, THE CAR WILL GO INTO LIMP MODE. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR JUST CRUZED AT A SNAIL PACE. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS THE TRAFFIC WAS MOVING AND I BARELY MOVED OUT OF THE WAY. SINCE, I HAD 4 OCCURRENCES AND TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER. THEY WILL NOT WORK ON THE CAR UNLESS THE CHECK ENGINE SIGN STAYS ON. THE CAR COMPUTER WILL RESET EVERYTIME YOU START THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOW TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, BUT AS I MENTIONED THE DEALER DID NOT WANTED TO RECOGNIZE THE SITUATION. *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON I-295 IN MODERATELY HEAVY TRAFFIC, THERE WAS AN AUDIBLE "CLUNK" AND VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY BEGAN DECELERATING. PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL DID NOT POWER THE VEHICLE. DRIVER WAS ALREADY IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE PREPARING TO EXIT, SO SAFELY MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER. HAD DRIVER BEEN IN ANOTHER LANE, THERE WOULD BE SIGNIFICANT RISK OF COLLISION AS THE VEHICLE LOST POWER SO QUICKLY. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FORD DEALER, WHO REPORTED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY HAD FAILED. FORD DENIED THAT THROTTLE BODY FAILURE WAS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE MUSTANG, ALTHOUGH IT HAS BEEN IN SEVERAL OTHER FORD MODELS. *TR

Opened Aug 3, 2011 · Closed Dec 14, 2011

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Power Train:manual Transmission

The Office of Defects Investigations (ODI) analyzed complaint data provided by Ford as well as complaints submitted to ODI from consumers.In total, there were 364 unique reports indicating various shift quality issues while driving.Ford identified several factors that may contribute to shift quality concerns in the subject vehicles, including cold transmission, clutch stay-out at high engine speeds, gear clash or grinding, and gradual loosening of clutch plate bolts in some early production vehicles.The largest percentage of complaints indicated higher than expected shift efforts in cold ambient temperatures.These complaints were related to transmission fluid viscosity and the higher shift efforts resolved themselves with the drivetrain warming.Ford published technical service bulletin TSB 11-3-18 to inform technicians that a lower viscosity fluid was available for use to address the cold shift issues.The clutch stay-out condition typically occurs at engine speeds greater than 4000 rpm.It does not prevent the selection of any gear, but may delay clutch re-engagement depending on how long the driver maintains the higher engine speed.Ford identified rotating inertia of the clutch components as the root cause and replacement clutch pedal parts were made available under Ford TSB 10-19-4.A number of reports alleged increasing difficulty selecting gears along with gear clash or grinding.Grinding or notchy gear shifts may be caused by gradual loosening of clutch plate fasteners, which is promoted by certain aggressive shifting.This condition is progressive in nature and initially results in symptoms related to shift quality/feel.Clutch plate bolt loosening will not result in inability to select any gear unless the progressive symptoms are ignored until complete clutch failure occurs.ODI?s analysis identified only five complaints alleging an inability to shift into gear due to loose clutch plate bolts.None of these resulted in a stall and gear shifting could occur before engine start.A revised fastener was designed and implemented in production and is available for service through a special service message.There is no indication of loss of motive power or unreasonable safety risk associated with the alleged defect in the subject vehicles.This preliminary evaluation is closed.
