I CURRENTLY OWN A 2005 FORD FREESTYLE AND NUMEROUS TIMES IT HAS LUNGED WHEN I WAS IN A STOPPING POSITION IN MANY OCCASIONS. WHEN I AM IN THE CAR AND IN DRIVE WITH THE BRAKES ON THE CAR WILL INSTANTLY REV UP AND MOVE FORWARD. ONE OCCASION I WAS AT A DRIVE THRU AND THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY HIT A POLE IN THE DRIVE THREW. ANOTHER TIME, MY WIFE WAS WALKING AROUND THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AND HIT MY WIFE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES AND ONE PERSON HIT SOMEONE IN THE GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. AT TIMES THE CAR WILL NOT RESPOND WHEN THE GAS IS PUSHED. I WILL PUSH THE GAS TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WILL ONLY GO 3-7 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER READING MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS IT SEEMS THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY ON THE FORD FREESTYLE. FORTUNATELY MY WIFE DID NOT GET SERIOUSLY HURT, JUST A MINOR BRUISE, HOWEVER I FORESEE SOMETHING HAPPENING. NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE TRIED TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY BUT FORD STATES THIS PRODUCT IS ON BACK ORDER AND IS UNKNOWN WHEN IT WILL ARRIVE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECT OF FORDS VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TR
