2005 ford expedition displayed "electronic throttle control failure" message and engine abruptly quit at high speed in traffic on a curved road resulting in a simultaneous loss of power steering and power brakes. This appear to be a common problem for which there has been no safety recall. A failure like this with no mechanical backup for engine throttle control is a serious safety issue. *tr

The vehicle loses power while you are driving, there is no warning of any type. Just all of a sudden your truck won't move. This can cause someone to rear end your vehicle. *cn
