| 2010 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | ON JUNE 1 THE VEHICLE GOT STUCK AT 4 RPM'S WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED, THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND. A WEEK LATER THE VEHICLE AGAIN DID NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENTER A HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED AND STALLED OUT. VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON WITH NO OTHER PROBLEMS. ON JUNE 18 THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED & STALLED LEAVING A PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED 4 TIMES, BUT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND WHEN ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED. EACH TIME ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED IT SPUTTERED AND DIED. VEHICLE WAS TOWED FROM THE SCENE AND PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. *TR |
| 2008 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | MY MERCURY MILAN IS LESS THAN A MONTH OLD. I WAS DRIVING ON A SECONDARY SURFACE ROAD. I ACCELERATED TO PASS ANOTHER CAR, SUDDENLY THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I APPLIED THE BRAKES THEY WOULDN'T WORK. I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE UP. IT WOULD NOT STOP THE CAR. I CONTINUED ACCELERATE. I WAS HEADING INTO HEAVER TRAFFIC. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO PULL ON THE SHOULDER AND IN ORDER TO STOP THE CAR I HAD TO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I STARTED THE ENGINE NOW THAT I WAS IN PARK AND THE ENGINE RACED. I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AGAIN. THIS TIME IT WAS NORMAL. I WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THE CAR WAS EXAMINED EXTENSIVELY. NOTHING WAS FOUND. *TR |
