My car, on 4-5 occasions now, has lost all power while traveling on the freeway at about 80 miles per hour. I called Ford because of the electronic throttle body customer satisfaction program and my vehicle does not qualify because of the assembly plant that the car was built at. I can attest that my vehicle is doing the same exact thing that is described in the accounts of the problem with the throttle - without question. I urge you to expand the program that Ford is being required to do for this massive (over 1 million vehicle) problem. This appears to me to go beyond a plant issue to an engineering issue with the part itself.
