While driving on a four lane in charleston SC my van started jerking and I lost all power and felt like I was going to have a heart attack ! it did coast enough to get to the side of the road. After it sat for several minutes it started up fine. But let me tell you I only live 5 miles from the first power shut down but it happened 3 more times before I got home.
Vehicle lunges forward and tachometer shows momentary engine rpms up to 2500 causing vehicle to surge. Using the brake pedal to control the unexpected motion stalls out the engine which when restarted can only drive at very reduced speed. Ford dealership replaced throttle body and reprogrammed sensor for more tolerance as per new Ford specs. Service advisor attributed the bad throttle body to low quality gasoline.
