general problems of the 2005 Ford Expedition

I was driving and all of a sudden steering wheel locked and my car literally shut off while I was driving. . I coasted to the side and I turned off car. . Tried to turn it back on and it kept cranking and I kept doing it like 5 times until it started back up. Sure it is a 2005, but it has been giving me problems since I got it, now it is worse. I don't believe it is wear and tear I actually replaced the whole engine 4 years after I bought my car which is ridiculous to begin with. If my car burns up while I am driving I will really make a stink. .

Takata recall. My Ford Expedition 2005, has been messing up for a while now. We've taken it to the mechanic way too many times. It starts shaking sometimes when we step on the gas after we stop at a stop light or stop sign, and going up a hill it feel a like it hesitates and feels as if it's pulling back. Yesterday was what started to concern me though. My vehicle just shut off on me completely while I was on the highway. My Ford focus 2012 has been doing the same thing and it turns out it had a recall issue, so I was wondering if that's the case with my Expedition.

Since purchasing the Expedition in December 2014, I've had several incidents of "check engine throttle" warnings and the engine shut down, suddenly. This seems to also have a secondary issue of the truck hesitating/sputtering around 40-50mph. The vehicle has shut down on me in city traffic quite a few times and once on an exit ramp of the highway. This is a very dangerous situation to experience. The dealer mentioned possible spark plug issues. When the "check engine" icon finally came on, I had it read by the dealer and an independent mechanic. The code is a p2104. The dealer never got back to me on a remedy for this. The mechanic says the electronic throttle control must be replaced and could be the cause of both issues. Both have been reported to the dealer before their warranty expired. I'm finding the repair could cost about $700. An issue of the engine shutting off, regardless of speed, while driving is very dangerous. The truck must be placed in park, turned off, the re-started before continuing my drive. The scariest was upon an exit ramp of the highway at approximately 30mph.

Rear driver side passenger window went down by itself and there is no way to send it up. Is stuck open. I am reporting because I found more than 20 forums online with hundreds of reported complaints on the same issue and I don't see the necessary recall on this item.
