Since my truck was new I have had a problem with no acceleration, misfire, brakes, and some kind of growling noise when I come to a stop and or making right-hand turns. Just after my warranty expired I was driving on the highway and I had to slow down my truck cut off. Today it cut off in traffic 4 times, this isn't very safe. I pulled the codes and it was a p2112 throttle actuator closed. I saw on a web page that Ford extended the warranty on this issue to 10 years or 150,000 miles, I called Ford and they said that they will only charge me to fix this problem.

When accelerating to merge on to a major highway, my truck lost power and went into “limp mode”. This caused rapid deceleration and I was nearly rear-ended by a semi-truck with my family in my truck. I had to slow to a stop on the shoulder and shut the engine off and back on to clear the faults and drive away. Error codes: hill start assist not available, hill descent control fault, and the service wrench and “see manual”. I also received the p2112 engine error code for throttle body stuck shut. This entire sequence repeated approximately 15 times before I could get it to the dealer and I was significantly reduced in my ability to accelerate (at all speeds) until it was fixed. This is a major safety issue and needs to be recalled immediately. Throttle bodies should not fail at 60k miles. Ford replaced my throttle body and the issue was corrected.
