The wrench light came on in the car and my OBD sensor will not pick up a code on what it could be. I was driving it yesterday to merge onto a highway when suddenly I couldn-??t pass 15 mph and was stuck witch cars beeping and zooming around me. I had to shut the car off wait and turn it back on. The amount of complaints I-??ve seen about the same exact issue happening to people in the same exact car is ridiculous to not be a recall. I am almost certain it-??s a throttle bottle issue. This needs to be looked into and investigated before ford comes across a lawsuit.

While driving on the interstate my car lost the ability to travel at a safe and acceptable speed. The cars maximum speed was 30 mph on an interstate that has a required speed of 55mph. I was forced to pull over on the side of the road and have the car towed. This is a grave safety concern, especially since Ford Motor Company knows exactly what the problem originates from. The car was then taken to a repair shop that found the problem to be a defective throttle body. Ford will replace throttle bodies in 2009 and up Mercury Milan's but not the 2007. The cars have the exact same throttle bodies! it is negligent on Ford Motor Companies part to not offer to replace all throttle bodies in affected automobiles.

I was traveling on a two lane highway going about 60 mph with my two granddaughters in the car with me, when all of a sudden I lost power and the car began to decelerate. The wrench light came on. I pulled over to the side of the road and after calling my mechanic I turned the car off. I waited for about 5 minutes and restarted the vehicle. The wrench light went off and I was once again able to drive the vehicle. This is very dangerous if it should happen on a major freeway in rush hour traffic. Some internet research indicates that this has been a major problem with the Mercury and others. I called a Ford dealer who said my car was not part of the extended warranty that was part of the "customer satisfaction program" and he would not tell me any other information citing liability concerns.

Was driving home on the expressway where the speed limit is 65 and vehicle wouldn't go over 55 with RPM's at 3000. All the while having the wrench idiot light on. Hoping there is recall because I can't afford a new vehicle or even for it to be fixed.

2007 Mercury Milan came to a complete stop on a 2 lane highway, at a speed of approximately 55 mph in the left hand lane with heavy traffic, no indication of problem to try and even pull over. Towed to garage, was unable to fix. They towed it to a Ford dealership, coils, spark plugs, throttle body and PCM replaced, still would not run. Towed back to original garage. Did a smoke test on catalytic converter and stated 1 has to be replaced (will not pass inspection) but because of the number of "misfires" they strongly recommend replacing all three. After some searching I have found that this is a problem that Ford has not only known about, but stated that they were cooperating fully with the government, however, there was never a recall. I have placed a complaint with NHTSA. I requested a quote to trade the car in, but because of it's present situation they offered me $3400, kelly blue book value is $7000, I still owe $3700 on this vehicle, still have to have catalytic converters replaced and just hope that it runs, and do not even at this time know the amount of repairs this far. I contacted Ford headquarter and they response was first to have it towed again to the Ford dealer. But when I questioned why I would need to pay yet another towing fee, she abruptly stated. "there is nothing we can do because you didn't have it initially diagnosed by Ford. This car poses a potential life and death situation for the consumer.

Prior to the incident described the car was acting perfectly fine and had never died or been difficult to start. On the morning of Sept 23rd I got in the car I started it and it died immediately. I started the car again and drove for approximately 1 block and it died again. I restarted it and it drove a couple more blocks and when I stopped at a stop sign it died again. After this the car would start but would shut off as soon as I put the car in gear. Every time the car died the check charging system light would come on. The car was towed to the local Ford dealer. The dealership ran the computer which indicated the electrical throttle body was bad. When the dealership removed the faulty throttle body they could not find any damage that would cause it to go bad. They explained that it must be a faulty part. When the throttle body was replaced a code indicated that the mass air flow sensor was also bad. The dealership could not find damage on the sensor either and explained that the throttle body going out blew the sensor.
