I was driving and all of a sudden steering wheel locked and my car literally shut off while i was driving.. i coasted to the side and i turned off car.. tried to turn it back on and it kept cranking and i kept doing it like 5 times until it started back up. sure it is a 2005, but it has been giving me problems since i got it, now it is worse. i don't believe it is wear and tear i actually replaced the whole engine 4 years after i bought my car which is ridiculous to begin with. if my car burns up while i am driving i will really make a stink..
Takata recall. my ford expedition 2005, has been messing up for a while now. we've taken it to the mechanic way too many times. it starts shaking sometimes when we step on the gas after we stop at a stop light or stop sign, and going up a hill it feel a like it hesitates and feels as if it's pulling back. yesterday was what started to concern me though. my vehicle just shut off on me completely while i was on the highway. my ford focus 2012 has been doing the same thing and it turns out it had a recall issue, so i was wondering if that's the case with my expedition.
(1) vehicle started and shifted into drive (2) immediately after shifting with foot on brake, experienced full engine throttle causing unwanted acceleration forward and almost causing accidents (3) vehicle taken to ford dealership for service and problem reoccured 2 days later
