I pulled over and shut the car off, then after a minute restarted. It started ok, i then used an odb adapter to read the codes, and found a soft (not permanent) code p2112 (throttle body stuck closed). I immediately call the ford dealership to have them look…

    Driving on major freeway in houston rush hour. Lost power, wrench popped up and said see manual. Engine light came on. Had to wait in traffic and restart vehicle. Could not go over 40 mph without losing power again. Apparently every other 2016 ford has been recalled for a throttle body defect except the expedition. Our issue was a defective throttle body.

    Throttle body failure. Has happened over 8 times while driving on busy highways. Vehicle looses throttle control while driving. It forces you to pull over and turn off the vehicle and restart it to reset it. Very dangerous.

The diagnostic was completed at a ford dealership and it turn out to be the throttle…
