I was driving down a busy city street with my daughter when my car started to lose power and proceeded to stall in the middle of the road. A warning light (the wrench) popped up while this happened. I was luckily in the right hand lane and was able to steer the vehicle off of the road into a private drive. The vehicle then completely lost power. I was able to start the vehicle and tried to drive down the private road when the vehicle again started to lose power and stall. I then called aaa and had a tow truck pick up my vehicle and tow it to a local Ford dealership. I was told the next day by the dealership that is was a faulty throttle body and that the part just happened to not be covered under my extended warranty. Why is a part that can cause a car to stall out while driving not covered under an extended warranty that the Ford dealerships are selling to their customers? furthermore, after seeing so many posts about this particular part on this website as well as numerous others why is there not a recall on these faulty throttle bodies? this a lot like what chevy did with their ignition switches (which we happen to own a cobalt and are going through that mess right now) allowing faulty parts to be placed into these vehicles which can cause the potential for serious accidents. I just thank god that we were not on a major highway in the middle of rush hour traffic. Something needs to be done about these parts and Ford needs to look into the "extended warranties" that they are allowing their dealerships to sell. I am furious with my dealership right now and have a call into the east coast regional office regarding this situation.

Closed the drivers side door, door ajar light came on and stayed on. Beeper kept sounding. Doors would not lock. When ignition was turned off, lights (interior, parking, mirror lights stayed on. Radio turned off when ignition switch was turned off. Auto opener did not work on drivers side and could not lock doors.

At randon the driver door ajar light & warning will appear. This prevents doors from being locked while the key is in the ignition switch. Door is secure and closed. Warning light will sometimes come on while driving. I am concerned it presents a security issue while driving in some urban areas. Ford dealership where I bought the car said that they had seen the problem before and, since it was outside the warranty period, would cost approx. $300. 00 to repair.
