I was simply going up a slight hill and the wrench light turned on I lost power she still accelerated but sluggish and changing gears was sluggish too. Turned it off at the house made sure my CAI was good and the light is off. I see tons upon tons of people complaining about the wrench light and the throttlebody. No codes. Something is wrong with them I see people have trouble with 12k on their Throttle body. I wanted to go on here to say that I believe it is EXTREMELY dangerous for the issue to come and go especially on busy roads. The problem comes and goes without a trace. So dangerous it deserves a recall just like my airbag and the hundreds of thousands who reported it

ON OCT 27, 2014 I WAS TRAVELING OUT OF TOWN ONTO OUR LOCAL HIGHWAY. AS I ACCELERATED FROM 40 MPH TO THE 65 MPH SPEED LIMIT THE GAS PEDAL CONTINUED TO RAPIDLY DEPRESS TO THE FLOOR SENDING ME UP TO 80 MPH UNTIL I DEPRESSED THE CLUTCH. AT THAT POINT THE ENGINE RPM SKYROCKETED, SO I TURNED OFF THE CAR, APPLIED THE BRAKES AND PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. IT WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE! I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST CAUSED BY THE GAS PEDAL GETTING STUCK UNDER MY NEW FLOOR MAT, BUT THEN HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS, SO I KNEW IT WAS A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. SINCE THEN I HAVE RESEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND LOTS OF INFORMATION AND BLOGS FROM OTHER MUSTANG OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AND PLAN TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT IMMEDIATELY WITH MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. QUESTION: WHY DOESN'T FORD DO A MAJOR RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED? *TR

I PURCHASED A 2010 FORD MUSTANG V6 COUPE AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THE HYDROLIC CLUTCH HAS BEEN REPLACED, THE SLAVE CYLANDER, THROTTLE BODY UNIT, AND THERMOSTAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED. MY CAR HAS DIFFICULTY SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR, AND REVERSE. I HAVE TO COAST THE CAR AND RE-ENGAGE THE CLUTCH WHILE SHIFTING BACK AND FORTH TO GET IT INTO RESERVE. MY TRANSMISSION SOUNDS LIKE ITS GRINDING AND THE SHIFTER MAKES A KNOCKING NOISE. WHEN SHIFTING THE CAR LIKES TO JUMP FOWARD. MY SHIFTER SHAKES AND WANTS TO POP OUT OF 5TH GEAR WHILE ON THE FREE-WAY. I HAVE BEEN TELLING THE FORD DEALERSHIP THIS AS WELL AS FORD MOTOR COMPANY CUSTOMER SERVICE IN DEARBORNE MI. WHEN INVOLVED THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S NORMAL FOR MY CAR AND THAT ALL I CAN DO IS WAIT FOR A 'CATASTROPHIC' EVENT TO OCCUR OR I CAN TRADE IN MY CAR. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WAIT FOR SOMETHING CASTASTROPHIC TO OCCUR FOR FORD TO TAKE ME SERIOUSLY.
