| Description of the problem | I brought my 2011 mercury milan from sandy springs ford last year. The vehicle now has 60k miles on it and i am experiencing stalling/acceleration problems which are happening more frequently since the initial fault. When driving my car decelerates and i cannot pick up speed so the car eventually stops. The wrench light came on indicating something was wrong. This happened to me 4 four times since last week (3 times on the highway) and i had to hurry up and pull my vehicle over on the side of the highway as the speed decelerated and before it stopped (dangerous). I took my car to the dealership today and that said that it was a throttle body issue and that ford has been receiving numerous complaints regarding throttle bodies. I am highly concerned for the safety of myself and others driving these ford vehicles. |
