Engine stall during braking after hard acceleration while in nuetral and pressing the clutch.
- Belleville, MI, USA
The car intermittently stalls on deceleration. When decelerating to a stop, pushing in the clutch and braking will cause the vehicle to die. There is no warning or definite rate of speed or RPM. It occurs occasionally. The dealer attempted to fix by adjusting the voltage on the throttle position switch, second reprogrammed the computer. The third occurance stated they could not duplicate the problem. This is a safety issue because when the car dies while braking, you lose power steering and braking ability.

The car dies unexpectedly. The check engine light comes on but the dealer sayS that they cannot find anything wrong with the car. This has happened on two different occasions, (while the car is idling and when the car is in gear moving). Ford said that this has been reported on numerous occasions but they cannot fix the problem because when the diagnostic check is done no problem codes are recorded.
