Description of the problem	At 40,000 miles, had to have the throttle body replaced (extended warranty, so cost not material to me). Concern is that on a 1300 mile interstate round-trip, my engine shut down 5 times. In each case i lost all acceleration without warning and had to coast to the shoulder of the interstate. My dash showed a wrench symbol, which would disappear after i had turned the ignition off, then back on (as if nothing ever happened). I subsequently learned that a defective throttle body put me into a "limp home" mode meaning i could continue driving only at idle speed. The limp home mode (i learned this term from reading a customer blog) caused immediate deceleration on the interstate at full speed 3 of the five times my engine shut down. Had i just passed another vehicle or had an inattentive driver following me, i very well could have been rear-ended. A ford dealer, midway through my round trip, could not determine a repair code for this situation. Only after the 5th engine shut down, did a "check engine" light appear. This allowed a second ford dealer, at the end of my trip, the documentation needed to replace the throttle body. Very dangerous situation... The first ford dealer sent me on my way despite what now appears to be a well-known problem "internally" at ford. The 2nd dealership miraculously had a replacement part on hand and made the necessary repair within 8 hours... I believe only because i stressed the point about unsafe travel!
