 Description of the problem1. 11/09/2019 vehicle went into "limp mode" when entering the i-84 freeway from a freeway on-ramp at wood village, oregon. Vehicle lost power, would not exceed 5 mph, dash lights (wrench light) came on. Vehicle partially blocked traffic at intersection of freeway and on ramp causing a dangerous traffic problem for over 1 hour before tow truck arrived.. Vehicle was towed to ford dealer. Diagnostic codes were not available upon restart at dealer to determine the problem, no repair was made. How can ford have a "limp mode" which essentially shuts down the vehicle (stutters, stalls, no power) without the ability to diagnose the problem when diagnostic codes automatically reset at next startup? 2. 07/02/20 vehicle went into "limp mode" while driving on busy county road near my home. Using county roads and city streets, vehicle was driven in "limp mode" at low speed (5 mph or less for 7 miles to ford dealer. Other vehicles were forced to pass in dangerous situations, bike lanes were blocked and intersections were partially blocked because of the slow speed of the vehicle. I was afraid to shut off the vehicle due to the previous incident where that action cleared the diagnostic codes. Vehicle was left running at the ford dealer and repaired by them by reading the codes and replacing the throttle body. It is ridiculous to have a failure that initiates a "limp mode" condition that places the vehicle in a dangerous situation where the underlying condition cannot be easily diagnosed if vehicle is subsequently restarted. This will, of course happen when the vehicle is being towed or driven to the dealer if the dealer cannot immediately read the codes. I feel that ford put me in harms way twice due to this faulty "limp mode' system. Further, i have no confidence in the reliability of this vehicle for future use.

  • 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.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
