 Description of the problemOn june 18, 2013 while driving home from work i was stopped a yield sign waiting for traffic to clear which would allow me to enter a main road. When traffic was clear i pressed the accelerator and began to proceed. Within one or two seconds i lost all power in my accelerator and the rpms were not moving in my dashboard. As i steered my vehicle to the side of the road my car began to jerk as i put my vehicle in park; roughly 100 feet from where i pulled from. It is important to note the wrench on the dashboard turn on when my vehicle came to rest. I turned my car off and put my hazards on. I waited several seconds then turn the car on. It had trouble starting but did start. I noticed the wrench on again but it quickly turned off. If the road was not clear when i pulled from the yield sign i would have caused and accident after starting my vehicle and proceeding down the road about 1 mile the vehicle had the same sequence of losing power in the accelerator and jerking to a stop as i put the vehicle in park. This time the road had widened to a tow lane road overpass of an interstate. My vehicle came to a stop just before the entrance to the interstate. The posted speed limit is 35 mph but people typically accelerate to 50 mph preparing to enter the highway. Coming to a stop before the interstate on ramp thankfully did not cause an accident but did cause a small traffic slow down as i pulled to the side of the road. Again i was able to start the vehicle with a little trouble and this time i noticed the wrench and check engine light on. After dropping my vehicle off on june 19, 2013 i received a call from the ford dealership advising the issue was related to the throttle body and that it would need to be replaced. I authorized the work because i need a reliable car and do not want to fear for my safety while driving the vehicle.
