Fuel Injector problems of the 2005 Ford Expedition

My 2005 Ford Expedition suddenly stalled as I was slowing down to enter an intersection. The dash displayed check electronic throttle control or engine fail safe mode and then I lost all power. I quickly started the truck back up and was able to drive back home, but had acceleration issues along the way and the service engine light stayed on. Ford service department determined it was the throttle position senor. No signs prior to this event that something was wrong with the car. Apparently this tp sensor malfunction caused me to have my throttle body and fuel injectors serviced too. Many complaints about the tp sensor on the internet. This issue seems to be a huge safety issue especially when you consider most of us purchase an Expedition for hauling around our children. I had my two year old in the car with me when my truck lost all power in the middle of an intersection.

On 1/23 my wife (5 months pregnant) was driving alone with my 2 year old son through the CA desert on her way to phoenix, az. In our 2005 Ford Expedition with only 35k miles on it. About 20 miles from blythe, CA three fuel injectors failed. Luckily she found a Ford dealership in blythe that was open on that Friday and able to replace them. Upon arrival in phoenix, another dealer determined that the catalytic converter was destroyed as a result. I would like Ford to replace the remaining 5 fuel injectors before they fail. What kind of Ford policy is it to extend the warranty to 120k miles on a known defect and wait for disaster? it is insane to not be able to rely on our car for long distance travel and always worry about this incident repeating. The cost of replacing the catalytic converter and resulting pollution should also be a consideration to Ford? fyi: the injectors froze in the open position and flooded the engine and exhaust system with fuel I. E. Fire!.

Our 2005 Ford Expedition eddie bauer was driving extremely rough, was difficult to start, and there was also a strong smell of fuel in the cabin. We were able to make it to the nearest local Ford dealership. They inspected the vehicle and informed us that two of our fuel injectors had gone bad, which had also damaged two spark plugs. Apparently they froze open and allowed too much fuel into the system. Since Ford is aware of this problem they have extended the warranty to vehicle owners for the defective fuel injectors to 120,000 miles. Late last year they sent out a letter to impacted vehicle owners. However, they only replace the fuel injectors as they go bad. We now have two new and improved fuel injectors in our vehicle and six of the faulty ones. We are concerned with the safety of us continuing to drive this vehicle. The engine could stop at any moment leaving us in a dangerous situation in traffic or in a remote area, and with the flooding of fuel into the system there is an increased risk of fire. There should be a recall on these faulty fuel injectors for the safety of the vehicle owners. I'm disappointed that Ford has chosen to not stand by their product and leave their customer in a potentially dangerous situation. Otherwise, we have been pleased with this vehicle. I recommend that the NHTSA investigate this issue. There are blogs online where others have experienced similar unsafe situations relating to these faulty fuel injectors. Many have had to go back to Ford multiple times already, as an injector goes bad. This situation could be remedied if Ford would recall and replace all of these injectors whether they have failed yet or not.
