Description of the problem | Basically the car shut down driving down the pennsylvania turnpike on friday morning at 65 mph, the car totally shut down. This happened 2 times at 65 mph and one time at about 25 mph while entering the turnpike. I was very lucky that the tractor trailer behind me going about 70 mph, saw something was wrong with my car and had time moved over into the passing or he would have hit my car and killed me. This happen one more time during my morning commute at that speed. I took my car yesterday to the ford dealer and he repaired the throttle body motor assembly. I have notified ford customer service case # cas-#[xxx], but i believe this is an immediate life & health safety recall issue.
