COASTED TO SIDE OF ROAD, SHUT VEHICLE OFF, RESTARTED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, UNABLE TO REGISTER CODE HOWEVER I PROVIDED THEM WITH COMMENTS FROM ONLINE SITES POINTING TO THROTTLE CONTROL BODY FAILURE CAUSING ENGINE TO GO INTO FAILSAFE MODE. DEALERSHIP'S FIRST INCLINATION WITHOUT ANY CODES IS TO REPLACE A FUEL SENSOR. DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO ADDRESS THROTTLE CONTROL BODY DESPITE MY SUGGESTION ALONG WITH OTHER VEHICLE OWNER'S INCIDENT REPORTS FROM ONLINE SITES.  8 DAYS LATER WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MYSELF AND FIVE CHILDREN, AFTER ABOUT A HALF HOUR OF DRIVING, HE FOUND HE WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE, LOOKED AT  THE MESSAGE CENTER AND IT SAID CHECK ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL AT WHICH TIME HE PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART.  DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THE ONBOARD COMPUTER OR SENSORS ARE NOT STORING THESE CODES, THE PROBLEM IS SO FAR INTERMITTENT.  THIS PARTICULAR DEALERSHIP DESPITE MY RESEARCH WOULD NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE.  IT ALSO APPEARS FORD IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THIS EITHER.  SO FAR,  I HAVE FOUND ONE INSTANCE ONLINE WHERE THE OWNER OF A 2006 EXPEDITION WAS REIMBURSED FROM FORD FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THEIR ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL BODY THEREBY ACKNOWLEDGING SOME SEMBLANCE OF RESPONSIBILITY.  THIS NEWER THROTTLE CONTROL BODY IS DIFFERENT THAN THE ORIGINAL, IMPROVED.  WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL OR EVEN A TSB?  HOW MANY REPORTS OF THERE OUT THERE, HOW MANY ACCIDENTS, INJURIES, POSSIBLY DEATHS MIGHT BE ATTRIBUTED TO THIS FAILURE?  AFTER CONTACTING FORD, WE WILL HAVE THE THROTTLE CONTROL BODY REPLACED.  ALSO, IT APPEARS, PEOPLE ARE BEING SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE SENSOR FIRST ONLY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM OCCUR AGAIN - IT'S NOT THE SENSOR, IT'S THE ACTUAL PART. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2005","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPEDITION","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
