I thought it might be the transmission slipping as it seemed to \"bottom out\" when hitting the gas.  The car would not respond and I would coast onto the side of road for fear of getting hit. After a minute or so, the gas pedal would work and I could keep moving. I reported it to the dealer and at that time it was winter and the roads were icy so they were not able to test it. Nothing showed up on diagnostics.  It has been happening more frequently (twice since June 2022).  Upon further research it seemed to be the throttle body so this week I took it to the Ford dealer where I purchased the car and told them what was happening.  They confirmed that it is a bad throttle body.  They are now replacing it at a cost of $781. I have found numerous sites on the internet that this is a well-known problem and in some cases it seems that Ford issued an extended warranty on defective throttle body assemblies and sensors for 10 years or 150,000 miles from the original purchase date.  So why does this not apply to me? This is very dangerous and I was lucky to not get hit.  When the car stops accelerating in the middle of traffic, it would be easy to get rear ended or worse.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
