1 Car Throttle Stuck problem of the 2005 Ford Five Hundred

Failure Date: 07/10/2012

One day in June I was pulling up to a store parking space rolling roughly 5mph. I had my foot on the brake, I was about to stop. Without touching the gas my 2005 Ford Five Hundred lunged at the building as if the throttle was stuck wide open! I had to push the break as hard as I could to keep it from crashing into the store! Ford should have a recall on this issue! it is extremely dangerous! this has happened to many Ford Five Hundred owners! last month in January my Five Hundred had other issues. I was driving 35mph and all of a sudden my car had no power, I gave it gas and it would growl but no power. I had to pull over and shut the car off. One restarted it returned to normal but the wrench icon light was on the dash. I have also had an idling problem. While at idle my car would sputter. The rpm's were low and it would idle rough and surge from low to high, I tried hitting the gas pedal and the car stalled! again other Ford Five Hundred owners also experienced these issues! Ford its time to step up and do a recall!!!!.
