I own a 2005 Ford Expedition and have experienced losing all throttle control on the freeway. I was lucky enough to make it safely to the side of the road. I was scared . There were 5 people in the vehicle including two young children. Very dangerous! this happens without warning. After about 5 minutes, the vehicle started up again without any problems. Today I have a different problem. O/d led flashes on dash and vehicle will not accelerate properly. I had it towed to the nearest mechanic. They suspect a transmission fault. I wish I never decided on getting this SUV. I should not be scared to drive my car. Ford needs to fix this problem ASAP!!!!!.
As I was driving to my office shortly after noon today, an alert appeared "check electronic throttle system. " my Expedition would not accelerate, I coasted into a parking lot and tried to accelerate, but nothing happened. I turned off the engine and restarted my vehicle - I could then accelerate my vehicle and continued to my office. This is was a very scary incident, thankfully I was the only one in my vehicle today; my grandson is sometimes with me. I am also thankful that I was in the right lane, so I was able to coast into the parking lot.
