| Description of the problem | While driving my 2004 ford freestar 4. 2 litre ,at speed of 60mph on highway suddenly vehicle stalled , and i had to act fast and coasted vehicle 2 lanes over to hug shoulder of highway. Put vehicle in park turn ignition off turn the key over vehicle starts fine i drive back on the highway vehicle drives good like nothing occurred, my thought was fuel line problem, so had mechanic look at it he changed my fuel pump , fuel filter, fuel pressure sensor , so back on the road with vehicle , vehicle keeps stalling at 50-60mph and also stalls at traffic stop light while idling. Having done some research online my problem seems like ford motor company has a defect problem in the pcm (powertrain control module)with the ford freestars/mercury monterey models it sold. I believe now my vehicle is not safe to drive and endangers other drivers on the road. Please look into this systematic problem with ford freestars/monterey minivans. |
