Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Took in for throttle body repair and driver seat bolt recall 9-03. they said didn't need the throttle body repair..now that warranty is up i can't get this hazard to driving fixed. i have almost hit cars in parking lots and in my driveway. why isn't this considered a safety issue and recall. why does it have a mileage and time limit. i tried to get it done and they wouldn't do it now it's too late. the throttle hesitates and then surges. ford identifies this as a problem, but won't fix it. *ak
