Description of the problem	Re odi report 10319552 : solution finally reached regarding my 2005 f250 super duty and the check engine light along with lack of acceleration . It has been diagnosed as the intake manifold runner control this device is apparently faulty as you research it is common on all ford 5. 8l engines but ford refuses to address it after numerous sensor replacements at the advice of ford and quite costly usually $100. 00 per sensor and many near misses as for lack of power to engine and unreliability of when it will or wont happen the imrc controls the airflow to your cylinders and upon failure will decide to either stick open or closed depending on its mood thusly causing either a too rich or too lean scenario going un repaired will cause catalytic converter failure also at a replacement cost of $1700. 00 +/- the imrc only costs around $67. 00 but ford wants $500- 600 to replace it as it requires the whole intake manifold to be removed in order to reach the imrc which is mounted directly to the intake manifold on the rear of it and is only accessible this way. With so many failures of this part a recall or at least an extended warranty coverage of item should be made as was done on fuel injectors that were inherently bad also. This is a potential safety issue that can cause an accident if you are not aware of when imrc will act up be aware it starts as low or no take off power when accelerator is pressed and is intermittent at best along w poor mpg call ford and complain as much as you can and save yourselves bundles of money this took me 3 years of dealing with ford and private mechanics to finally resolve this issue and at a costs of about $6000. 00 in unnecessary sensor replacements . This is on 5. 8l gas fuel injected 3valve engines if you research intake manifold runner control through a search engine you will see the multitude of failures for this part it is not vehicle specific but engine specific. Mileage start was 300000 final diagnosis and repair 98000.

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