The vehicle was in motion, on a city street lost power, shut down but didn't cut off no throttle what so ever.. I believe it is the throttle actuator control service code P2112

This is the 3 rd time the wrench trouble light came on. The car losses all power and can only idle ( roughly ). shut engine off for a few minutes and car starts up and goes just fine. Brought it back to dealer and they said no code is stored. Nothing they can do about it. I was told that the problem is usually a throttle body but since no code they can't replace it even though I have a Ford extended warranty. So I just went and bought a throttle body for $ $225 and installed it myself. Let's see what happens. Date installed 1/22/2019

Around July 2018 my Expedition started just randomly cutting off while driving with my 2 children in the car. After getting the codes read it came up as the throttle body. We had the throttle body replaced and it seemed to help until about Nov 2018 then instead of cutting off while driving the car would jerk hard and then you could not accelerate over about 50mph. Multiple things started flashing on the dash like the wrench, traction control, hill descent, and check engine. We got all codes read and this time it was the map sensor. We have replaced the map sensor 2 times with the most recent in Jan 2019. Now the Expedition has started to again flash traction control, hill descent, wrench, check engine and the codes are reading map sensor again!! we have spent $200 on each sensor we have replaced which have been 3! we have another appointment at the end of Jan to find out again if it is the map sensor for a 3rd time or if it is some computer malfunction. We have no more warranty. Ford needs to look into this problem as I have read other complaints and it is definitely not safe when I'm driving with my kids and the car jerks and then you can no longer accelerate.

The " wrench " warning light came on while driving on a highway and the car lost power. The car had to be towed. Luckily I was in the right lane.

8/31/18: Traveling 55 mph and suddenly lost all pedal power on I-40, only able to coast to shoulder. We waited 3 hours on the side of the road for a tow truck while traffic whizzed by dangerously close to our vehicle. Vehicle towed to flagstaff, AZ nearest city, however it was Friday after hours and the dealership was closed until Tuesday morning due to the labor day holiday. We were stranded in flagstaff until 9/4/18, unable to get authorization for a rental car until it was determined if it was covered by a warranty. Ultimately, they replaced the throttle body. There are many complaints of this same vehicle on the internet. We believe this should be investigated further and recalled if necessary. Please see letter below

The car lose power on the highway, were you have to stop the car

- Rutherford, NJ, USA

While driving the engine goes into "limp mode". this has happened 8 times in the past week at speeds of 50mph or even 15mph driving normal on a highway, country road, and entrance to a parking lot. This is incredibly dangerous because the vehicle has absolutely zero power and driver must place vehicle in neutral and coast to a safe place to pull over. Once pulled over, the vehicle has to be turned completely off and restarted. Afterwards, the vehicle runs very rough and cel is on. The code for the engine light displays the code : 2112 which is the throttle actuator is stuck closed. After doing research, this has been a known issue for years and not being taken of. This could extremely dangerous if someone is going 70mph in traffic, on a bridge, or even 45mph in a construction zone on the interstate.

While driving the gas pedal gets stuck and immediately loses power to accelerate. The yellow check engine wrench comes on as the engine sputters. Your only option is to coast to a stop and shut the car off. This comes with no warning and is very dangerous as we almost got rear ended as we were going 40 mph and just lost everything in a moments notice. This is the second time this has happened in 3 months. The first time we were going 35 mph accelerating and shut down and had to stop traffic to restart. We have it scheduled to go into the dealership tomorrow. But looks like this is an issue on several Ford vehicles with a recall on many, just not this one yet. The diagnostic was completed at a Ford dealership and it turn out to be the throttle body. This seems to be a known issues with Ford cars. This is very dangerous as it can happen at any time. Losing control of acceleration can be deadly depending on the circumstances. Once the vehicle is turned off and started up again the problem goes away.

While driving on a city street I lost power and control to the engine. Control of the engine is lost when without warning acceleration is lost. The car will slow until about 5 miles an hour speed. The rpms will fluctuate up and down and stepping on the accelerator does nothing. No warning is given, and I almost got into an accident. The diagnostic was completed at a Ford dealership and it turn out to be the throttle body. This seems to be a known issues with Ford cars. This is very dangerous as it can happen at any time. Losing control of acceleration can be deadly depending on the circumstances. Once the vehicle is turned off and started up again the problem goes away until it happens again, once you have it, the problem will be there until it is repaired and hope that the issues never returns.

Smell of exhaust inside vehicle whenever rear wing windows are open; generally occurs during acceleration or idling. This has been an ongoing issue since vehicle purchase in August 2016.

My 2016 Ford Expedition el ltd V-6 3.5L with 354 odometer miles produced 4 minor Prelude engine surges within a couple hours on the roadways before it went full throttle 5 times within a couple minutes. It suddenly, and without warning, ran down my wife after squishing her against the garage-bedroom wall (which was destroyed) in reverse, placed me in traffic danger when it raced out of the driveway, placed a witness driving in the street in danger as it backed up, and while turning into my driveway forward, plowed half its length into a neighbors house, and destroyed most of its exterior as a result of the forward and reverse collisions. The brakes were absolutely useless and could not begin to overpower the individual engine full power surges. The air bags never deployed despite the frontal impact exceeding 15 mph. The full throttle engine surge durations approximated 6 seconds each; and, the temporary returns to idle lasted 2-4 seconds. My wife is quite injured; but, could easily have been killed. I was planning a head-on large oak tree ramming to stop the vehicle once-and-for-all. Other people and Ford need to be advised of this potential death trap situation. Please help.
