At 45 mph I lost throttle control and warning light came on indicating "electronic throttle control". I drifted to the side of the road, put in park and turned off engine. I restarted and everything was fine and warning light was gone. Has been fine for the past couple of weeks. Reading everybody's concerns on this issue makes me wonder if there really is a fix for this. I certainly don't trust the dealers. . . . . . What's up Ford???.
