FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING THE 5 SPD, TAKING OFF FROM STOP SIGN THERE IS A DEAD SPOT THEN IT TAKES OFF IRRADICALLY. ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE, I TRIED TO SLOW DOWN AND FOOTFEED STUCK SO I SHIFTED DOWN AND PUMPED THE FOOTFEED/PEDAL THAT WASN'T STUCK..THE MOTOR EVENTUALLY SLOWED DOWN TO A MANAGEABLE LEVEL. IT HAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE THROTTLE PEDAL ASSEMBLY SENSOR. HAS OTHERS COMPLAINED OF THIS? IT IS A RECALL SITUATION FORD IS WILLING TO TAKE CARE OF? I AM THE 3RD OWNER. THE FIRST TWO COMPLAINED IT WAS HARD TO TAKE OFF ON A HILL. BUT THAT CAN BE AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER PROBLEM IS WHY I BOUGHT IT.

TAKATA RECALL -- I AM THE OWNER OF A 2006 MUSTANG GT, FOR WHICH I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE BY MAIL IN DECEMBER 2015. I PHONED THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY TO SCHEDULE THE SERVICE ON THE CAR, BUT WAS TOLD THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE THAT WEEK. THE CAR WAS ESSENTIALLY OFF THE ROAD IN STORAGE THE REMAINDER OF THE WINTER. I PHONE THE DEALER ON 4/28/2016, AND WAS TOLD THAT PARTS WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THEY WERE "HOPING THE PARTS WOULD BE IN, SOON." THIS IS AN UNCONSCIONABLE DELAY FOR A PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN "SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH," ACCORDING TO THE RECALL NOTICE. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THE SITUATION?

ENGINE
SUDDEN ACCELERATION. HAPPENED 3-4 TIMES BEFORE. CRUISE CONTROL ON HIGHWAY. I ROLLED INTO IT (THAT IS NOT FLOORING IT) AND IT WOULD NOT STOP ACCELERATING. USED BRAKES TO CONTROL CAR, TURNED OFF IGNITION, AND STOPPED ON SHOULDER. I HAD TO WAIT WHAT SEEMED LIKE 2-3 MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART WITHOUT RACING. TONIGHT WAS DIFFERENT. I HAD BRAKED OFF CRUISE CONTROL AS I EXITED 94E TO 65N. AS I BEGAN TO PLAN MY MERGE ONTO 65 A GUY ALONE IN THE RIGHT LANE WOULD NOT MOVE OVER, I ROLLED INTO AND THE ACCELERATION HAPPENED AGAIN. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER AT FIRST AND THE BRAKES WERE ALMOST OVERWHELMED. I TURNED OFF IGNITION AND COASTED FORWARD UNTIL I GOT A SHOULDER. ON MY SECOND RESTART IT REVED TO 3,000 RPM THEN VERY SLOWLY GOT TO A NORMAL IDLE. I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TO WHOM IT CONCERNS, BACK IN OCTOBER OF 2013, I PURCHASED A USED, BUT VERY WELL KEPT, 2006 FORD MUSTANG GT PREMIUM. AFTER A YEAR OR SO, I EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM THAT HAS LEFT ME AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. WHILE SLOWLY PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE TO PARK MY CAR, I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP, ABOUT TO SHIFT INTO PARK, WHILE MY FOOT WAS STILL DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO THROTTLE UP OVERPOWERING THE BRAKES CAUSING THE BACK WHEELS TO SPIN AND THE CAR TO MOVE FORWARD. THE HARDER I PUSHED DOWN THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE MORE IT THROTTLED UP UNTIL IT SHOT ME UP AND OVER THE CEMENT WHEEL STOP IN FRONT OF THE PARKING STALL AND ONTO THE GRASS MEDIAN AT WHICH TIME I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND SLAMMED THE SHIFTER UP INTO PARK. I WAS DUMBFOUNDED! I THOUGHT MAYBE SOMEHOW WHEN MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT WAS ALSO CATCHING THE SIDE OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THUS MAKING IT SEEM LIKE THE HARDER I PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE MORE THE ENGINE WOULD THROTTLE UP AS WELL. I EVENTUALLY SHOOK IT OFF AND WENT ABOUT MY DAY. THREE DAYS LATER, WHILE PULLING INTO MY BROTHERS GARAGE AND AGAIN, COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, IT THROTTLED UP AGAIN THE SAME WAY AND MY BROTHER WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. HE THOUGHT I WAS PLAYING UNTIL HE SAW THE PANIC ON MY FACE. HE NO SOONER JUMPED OUT OF THE WAY WHEN THE CAR SHOT FORWARD ALMOST HITTING HIM! THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN NEVER KNOWING WHEN OR WHERE. IT ALSO HAS DONE THIS WHILE JUST SLOWING DOWN TO ALMOST A STOP. I CONTACTED FORD WHO CLAIMED IGNORANCE AND WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HELP. LOOKED ONLINE FOR OTHERS HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF POSTS, EVEN LAW SUITES AGAINST FORD. I NOTICED PEOPLE DESCRIBING THE ACCELERATOR STICKING OR GOING TO THE FLOOR. THAT CAN'T HAPPEN, THERE'S NO CABLE CONNECTION TO THE THROTTLE. ELECTRICAL OR COMPUTER DEFECT IN FORD'S DRIVE BY WIRE SYSTEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED! HELP!
