 Description of the problemThis issue began about a month ago on my commute home from work, all engine power was lost as i came off the freeway, the computer alerted with a wrench icon. I pulled over and shut the car off, then after a minute restarted. It started ok, i then used an odb adapter to read the codes, and found a soft (not permanent) code p2112 (throttle body stuck closed). I immediately call the ford dealership to have them look at it. When they got the car, the code was no longer in the computer. They ran a diagnostic, declared that they did not find anything, charged me $200, and sent me home. Second occurrence was about 10 days ago, again driving home from work, then while coming up to a traffic light the same failure happened again. After restarting, and driving home, i began researching the problem. Today, while returning home in the rain during a 5 mile drive it failed 5 times, each time i had to pull over, shut it down then restart. Now i have a permanent code stored in the computer (p2112) and an appointment with the dealership to fix it. I am fairly certain that the throttle body will be replaced by the dealership, but i am out of warranty now, and they will indeed charge me. I have found numerous other complaints about this issue, and believe ford should provide an updated part that will resolve this issue. I suspect that this will in time cause an accident, perhaps even injury for someone. This is due to auto manufacturers removing the rather simple mechanical linkage from pedal to throttle and turning this over to a computer. To be sure, it is the computer that is creating the dangerous circumstances by disengaging all throttle control when the throttle body is sticking, forcing the driver to the side of the road (assuming there is a safe place to pull over).

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
