VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. INITIALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, FOLLOWED BY THE "YELLOW WRENCH" LIGHT, AT WHICH POINT THE VEHICLE ACCELERATOR NO LONGER AFFECTED THE RPMS AND NO PROPULSION WAS POSSIBLE. VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF BY DRIVER, AND LATER RESTARTED AND FUNCTIONED NORMALLY, I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE IT TO A DEALERSHIP, IT STALLED AGAIN ENROUTE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE SAME PROCESS OF TURNING THE CAR OFF, AND THEN ON AGAIN TO CONTINUE WAS ADMINISTERED AND THE VEHICLE MADE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. AS REPORTED BY OURISMANN FORD DEALERSHIP, THE VEHICLE THROTTLE BOX FAILED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS CONFIRMED THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DRIVER, OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THE VEHICLE, IT IS A DESIGN/MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THIS IS NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, UNFORTUNATELY, THIS PART WAS ONLY COVERED BY THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY WHICH RAN OUT ON MY 3 YEAR OLD CAR WHICH WAS PURCHASED AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED FORD LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DRIVER LOSES ALL CONTROL OF ACCELERATION UNEXPECTEDLY, I WAS LUCKY I WAS NOT REAR-ENDED ON THE FREEWAY. *JS
