Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The car has 82,000 miles on it. The throttle position sensor seems to be acting up. After researching this issue on the net, it appears this has been an issue since 04 with fords. In addition, they are on the 3rd generation sensor. I was driving normal speeds, then the warning light came on, killing the power to the engine, put me in a precarious situation on a 45 50 mile an hr road. Since this known issue since 04, seems like ford should replace this. It's a 20 dollar part, retail, but with this motor, you have to buy a totally rebuilt throttle body for 200+. It is dangerous because it can slow the car right down as you are driving. If you shut the motor off, it 'repairs' itself and works normally.
