ENGINE
TWO OR THREE TIMES IN THE LAST DAY OR TWO THE ENGINE HAS LOST POWER/DIED & CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE STEERED TO SIDE OF ROAD & PUT IN PARK TO BE RESTARTED! ON AT LEAST ONE OF THESE OCCASIONS THE CAR WAS IN TRAFFIC AT HIGHWAY SPEED & COULD HAVE REALLY BEEN A PROBLEM, WIFE WAS DRIVING & HAD GRAND DAUGHTER & GREAT GRAND DAUGHTER IN THE CAR WITH HER, FROM WHAT I CAN READ & FIND OUT FORD MOTOR CO KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM, BUT HAS YET NOT ADDRESSED IT, IT APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH A CIRCUIT BOARD ON THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A REAL BAD SITUATION! I THINK SOME ONES ATTENTION NEEDS TO BE DIRECTED TO THIS PROBLEM! WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL BEFORE SOME ONE REALLY GETS HURT? *TR

I WAS DRIVING AROUND 70MPH IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR STARTED TO SHAKE A LITTLE AND THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. IT WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AT ALL. MY CAR STARTED DROPPING IN SPEED DRAMATICALLY. I PUSHED MY GAS PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY AND THERE WAS NOTHING. THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING THOUGH. I COULDN'T GET OVER BECAUSE IT WAS RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I ENDED UP HAVING TO PARK MY CAR IN THE FAST LANE AS TRAFFIC FLEW PAST ME. VERY SCARY. THE CAR RUMBLED WHILE IN PARK SO I SHUT IT OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. IT CAME BACK ON WITH NO ISSUE AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WAS GONE. I LOOKED IT UP WHEN I GOT HOME AND IT LOOKED LIKE A BUNCH OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD ISSUES LIKE THIS AND IT WAS THEIR THROTTLE BODY. I TOOK MY CAR INTO FORD AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT NEEDED REPLACED. OF COURSE THIS WASN'T COVERED UNDER MY CPO POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I GOT THE WHOLE THING DONE FOR $438. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED ASAP. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING. A WRENCH APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. I HAD TO BRAKE TO A STOP ALONG THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT SEEMED TO WORK FINE. THIS WAS WEDNESDAY. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN ON FRIDAY AND THEN AGAIN ON MONDAY. AT THAT POINT I TOOK IT TO THE FORD SERVICE CENTER. THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY, COSTING ME OVER $430. ADDITIONALLY, HAD ANY OF THE ROADS BEEN BUSIER OR HAD NO PLACES TO PULL OVER, AN ACCIDENT EASILY COULD HAVE OCCURRED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM
WHILE WE WERE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE BLOWER MOTOR FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER SHUT ITSELF OFF THEN CAME BACK ON AND IT WAS BLOWING WHITE SMOKE OUT OF ALL OF THE VENTS. WE HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND SHUT OFF THE CAR IN ORDER TO STOP THE WHITE SMOKE FROM COMING THROUGH THE VENTS. THE HVAC BLOWER CONTROL MOTOR UNIT HAD STARTED BURNING AND FAILED TO DISENGAGE THE BLOWER MOTOR WHILE IT WAS BURNING. ADDITIONALLY THE VEHICLES 40A FUSE AND 30A ISO RELAY DID NOT WORK PROPERLY, IF WE DID NOT SHUT OFF THE CAR IT WOULD HAVE CONTINUED TO BURN. THIS IS THE SECOND INSTANCE OF THIS HAPPENING TO OUR MERCURY, THE FIRST TIME WE WERE PARKED AND WHEN WE TURNED THE CAR ON IT STARTING BLOWING WHITE SMOKE AND SMELLED OF BURNT ELECTRONICS AND OZONE FROM AN ELECTRICAL FIRE IN THE CAB. WHEN WE HAD A FORD SERVICE CENTER LOOK AT THE VEHICLE, WE WERE TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE. AND THAT THE CONTROL UNIT IS BEING USED LIKE A FUSE TO THE BLOWER MOTOR. *TR

ON TWO OCCASIONS ON THE SAME DAY (7/17/13), ONCE AT LOW SPEED (LESS THAN 15 MPH) AFTER TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT AND LATER THE SAME DAY AT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, MY 2011 MERCURY MILAN WENT INTO "LIMP" MODE WITH THE WRENCH LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CAR LOST ADEQUATE POWER OTHER THAN TO ESSENTIALLY COAST TO REST. ONCE AT REST, IT WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHILE IDLING. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR, THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT OFF ONLY TO COME BACK ON AGAIN AFTER ATTEMPTING TO MOVE THE CAR. AT THIS POINT, I HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER'S SERVICE DEPT. BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE OR DEFINITIVELY DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BUT "SUSPECTED" IT MIGHT BE DUE TO THROTTLE BODY ISSUES (WHICH AS I UNDERSTAND IS CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION AS NOTED BELOW): INVESTIGATION SUBJECT : ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTION DATE INVESTIGATION OPENED: FEB 21, 2013 DATE INVESTIGATION CLOSED: OPEN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE13003 COMPONENT(S): ENGINE AS THE LOCAL FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS UNABLE TO DEFINITIVELY DIAGNOSE OR REPLICATE THE ISSUE DURING IN-SHOP TESTING OR WHILE ROAD TEST DRIVING IT THEMSELVES FOR 9 MILES, THEY RETURNED THE CAR TO ME. WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP, THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN (LESS THAN 9 MILES AWAY).....THIS TIME AT FULL HIGHWAY SPEED (APPROX 65 MPH). ONCE AGAIN, THE CAR WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" WITH THE WRENCH LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. UPON RE-STARTING THE CAR, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL ISSUES. WHILE IT HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN YET (I'VE ONLY DRIVEN TO WORK THE FOLLOWING DAY SINCE ALL THIS OCCURRED), THIS ISSUE IS MOST CERTAINLY AN UNPREDICTABLE, SERIOUS DANGER TO MYSELF AS WELL AS OTHER MOTORISTS. *TR

DRIVING 2011 MERCURY MILAN 65MPH ON INTERSTATE (IN CONSTRUCTION ZONE) VEHICLE JOLTED HARD AND WITH LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH ACCELERATION TO GET TO A SAFE SPOT AND TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY SO I CAME TO A SLOW JERKING STOP WITH SEMIS HONKING, PASSING BY AND TEN CARS SCREECHING TO A STOP BEHIND VEHICLE. WRENCH LIGHT AND MOTOR LIGHT CAME ON IN MESSAGE CENTER. I HAD TO COME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC TO PUT INTO PARK AND THEN RESTART MY CAR. WHEN I RESTARTED IT AND DROVE A FEW FEET THE RPM?S FLEW TO 5,500 AND THE CAR JERKED FOR MILES UNTIL I COULD GET OUT OF CONSTRUCTION ZONE AND PULL OVER TO A SOMEWHAT SAFE SPOT. MY MERCURY MILAN ONLY HAS 48,000 MILES. THIS SCARY OCCURRENCE HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW, ONCE ON ANOTHER HIGHWAY AND ANOTHER ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD. EVEN AFTER GETTING THE THROTTLE BODY DIAGNOSED AND REPLACED THIS IS STILL AN ISSUE. I AM TAKING IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR THE FOURTH TIME WITH HOPES THAT THEY CAN FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM SCARED TO EVEN DRIVE THE CAR. IT IS NOT SAFE AND I WILL BE VERY DISPLEASED WITH FORD IF THERE IS NOT A RECALL CONSIDERING HOW DANGEROUS THIS MANUFACTURED PRODUCT IS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION AND I HOPE NO ONE GETS HURT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE THAT SO MANY PEOPLE SEEM TO BE HAVING AS WELL. *TR

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AUGUST 2012 - DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY JERKED AND THE SAFE MODE LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND I COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL, THEN STOPPED, PUT IT IN PARK. TURNED ENGINE OFF, THEN WAITED A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN. IT STARTED, BUT AFTER ACCELERATING PAST 10 MPH, IT DID THE SAME THING. AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE WENT BACK TO NORMAL DRIVING CONDITION. THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT OUT ON ITS OWN. JULY 2013 - DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET TO 64 MPH, SAME THING HAPPENED BUT WAS QUITE SCARY BECAUSE WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH WAS BUSY AND WE HAD TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND THEN ONCE WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, WE HAD TO TRY TO MERGE WITH BUSY TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON SO WE WERE ABLE TO HAVE THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED AND IT IS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY THAT NEEDS REPLACED. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FAILURE ON THE 211 MERCURY MILAN PREMIER 3.0 V6 ENGINE. CAR ENTERED "LIMP" MODE. VEHICLE MAY BE RESTARTED AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, PLACING THE TRANSMISSION IN THE PARK POSITION, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTING. FORD SERVICED THE THROTTLE BODY WITH A CHEMICAL CLEANER IN EARLY MAY. THE VEHICLE PERFORMED SATISFACTORY FOR THE MONTH OF MAY. BEGINNING IN JUNE, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ENTER "LIMP" MODE MULTIPLE TIMES ON A DAILY BASIS. I BEGAN TRACKING THE OCCURRENCES IN MID-JUNE AND THE THROTTLE BODY HAS FAILED ON 31 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. FAILURE MAY OCCUR AT ANY TIME OR AT ANY SPEED. INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED FROM A STANDING START OR AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS OF 70 MPH. THERE IS NO OPTION OTHER THAN TO ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO COAST TO A STOP AND FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES MENTIONED ABOVE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN TRAVELING AT ANY SPEED, ESPECIALLY INTERSTATE SPEEDS. IF A LOCATION TO PULL OVER IS NOT AVAILABLE, YOU ARE A HAZARD TO ANY FOLLOWING TRAFFIC. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND THEY DECLINED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. *TR

I BROUGHT MY 2011 MERCURY MILAN FROM SANDY SPRINGS FORD LAST YEAR. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 60K MILES ON IT AND I AM EXPERIENCING STALLING/ACCELERATION PROBLEMS WHICH ARE HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY SINCE THE INITIAL FAULT. WHEN DRIVING MY CAR DECELERATES AND I CANNOT PICK UP SPEED SO THE CAR EVENTUALLY STOPS. THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING SOMETHING WAS WRONG. THIS HAPPENED TO ME 4 FOUR TIMES SINCE LAST WEEK (3 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY) AND I HAD TO HURRY UP AND PULL MY VEHICLE OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AS THE SPEED DECELERATED AND BEFORE IT STOPPED (DANGEROUS). I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND THAT SAID THAT IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE AND THAT FORD HAS BEEN RECEIVING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THROTTLE BODIES. I AM HIGHLY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS DRIVING THESE FORD VEHICLES. *TR

2011 MERCURY MILAN. TRAVELING ON I-494 IN MINNEAPOLIS DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC GOING 60MPH. VEHICLE JOLTED HARD, WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL ACCERLATION WAS LOST. THANKFULLY I WAS IN THE OUTSIDE LANE AND WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF THE ROAD. ONCE PARKED THE CAR WAS IDLING VIOLENTLY. TURNED OFF CAR, WAITED A MINUTE AND STARTED BACK UP. STARTED FINE AND CONTINUED ON MY WAY. MADE IT 40 MILES BEFORE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. TURNED OFF AND BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. ONCE I GOT HOME, DID A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH AND FOUND NUMEROUS POSTINGS AND COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE THROTTLE BODY BEING DEFECTIVE AND REQURING REPLACEMENT AT COST TO THE OWNER. BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT. ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUE TWICE DURING THE 25 MILE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP. TOLD DEALERSHIP THAT I AM CERTAIN IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY, THEY CHECKED AND FOUND ERROR CODE P2111 AND REPLACED THE THROTTLE AND GASKET. VERY FRUSTRATING TO SEE THIS IS A SOMEWHAT COMMON ISSUE IN MILANS AND FUSIONS. CAR ONLY HAS 50K MILES ON IT. *TR

VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND RPM DROPPED BELOW 1000, ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO ACCELERATOR DEPRESSION. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD THE TROUBLE CODES ANALYZED AND IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY PART THAT WAS DEFECTIVE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT PARTICULAR PART WAS ON BACK ORDER AND THAT THEY HAVE HAD NUMEROUS VEHICLES WITH THAT PROBLEM. *TR

I HAD FIVE SEPARATE INCIDENTS WHERE MY 2011 MERCURY MILAN LOST ALL POWER AND ACCELERATION BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP. TWICE RIGHT WHEN I STARTED MY VEHICLE THE CAR HAD NO POWER TO MOVE FROM PARK AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WAS ON. WHEN I SHUT IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON IT STRUGGLED TO START AT FIRST BUT THEN STARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY. THE OTHER THREE TIMES I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET (LUCKILY NOT A HIGHWAY) AT AROUND 40 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR SHOOK, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, AND I LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND POWER. I QUICKLY TURNED MY HAZARDS ON AND COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE I SHUT OFF THE CAR. AGAIN WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE IT STRUGGLED A BIT BUT THEN STARTED NORMALLY AND THE WRENCH LIGHT WENT OFF AND DROVE LIKE NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. I ONLY GOT ABOUT 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD WHEN IT LOST POWER AGAIN...AND THEN AGAIN. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE AND THAT THE FUSIONS/MILANS HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I WAS SHOCKED THIS WASN'T COVERED UNDER MY 5 YR 60,000 MILE WARRANTY. WHAT WAS EVEN MORE TROUBLING IS THE FACT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART GIVEN THE HUGE PROBLEM WITH IT. COME ON FORD, REALLY? IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE GETTING HURT OR WORSE KILLED BEFORE YOU ISSUE THE RECALL? ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SEARCH THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL FIND DOZENS OF REPORTS AND FORUMS WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. LUCKILY THE DEALERSHIP I WAS ABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE TO (I TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST ONE TO MY HOME BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF LOSING POWER WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AND POSSIBLY GETTING IN A WRECK) WAS ABLE TO GET THE PART IN ABOUT 7 DAYS EVEN WITH IT BEING BACK ORDERED. IN TOTAL I ENDED UP DROPPING ABOUT $400 TO REPLACE IT. I'D BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IN FORD IF A RECALL WASN'T ISSUED AND I DIDN'T GET THIS MONEY BACK. *TR
