The car shudders and feels like it os going to stall out. The car revs high when you press the gass but has no power. I've taken it twice to dealership and they say they have to fix the throttle body first before they can tell me if it's my transmission. Also when I'm filling up my tank it stops every few seconds and will not allow gas to go in the tank. They also said it's my filler neck.

The engine malfunction service light came on and the sorry bottle position sensor keeps on saying it's spelt faulty, but when I replaced the throttle body and replaced the gas pedal it was still having issues, and now I'm barely getting to and from work anymore or anywhere else, even down the street because it continues to put itself in safe mode. So I am out for a thought of body and a gas pedal, and it's still not fixed the issue

For the past few months I've been trying to figure out what's been happening with my vehicle. I have a 2011 ford fiesta. It is a manual. I'm not stalling it, but when I'm driving- whether I'm stopped or actually moving (even at 45 + MPH) it will completely shut off. The rpms sometimes fall 2-300 below randomly but will come back and keep going. However, when they fall and for whatever reason the vehicle can't figure out that the rpms should be higher, it shuts off completely. When it actually shuts off I have no warning. Here is the link I found on information about the ford focus recalls: https://www.wftv.com/news/national-news/ap-top-news/ford-recalls-nearly-15m-focuses-because-engines-can-stall/859721918 luckily I have a manual and I can shift into neutral and restart the car even when I'm going down city streets or busy intersections. This is an incredibly dangerous situation, and I've been trying to diagnose it for months. In a 10 minute drive this can happen as many as 3-4 times. There's no link to why it happens sometimes and not others. Shifting into another gear doesn't effect it. I have noticed after I get fuel it tends to happen more often, but I'm unsure if that's correlation or causation. Sometimes after I get fuel I can't even get back onto the main road with out the car dying completely. When it shuts off it will almost always turn back on just fine. I recently got my battery replaced thinking that that would have possibly solved the issue but it has persisted. Oil changes/tune ups don't fix it either. I'm unsure of what the exact issue is, but I did see that ford is recalling their focus models from 2012-2018 for an issue that sounds exactly what I'm experiencing. I would really like to see them open up their investigation to possibly include fiesta's like mine because it seems to be a related issue.

First time I had an issue vehicle was in motion would not accelerate over 40 MPH. Took to dealership no codes found. After about a week vehicle was parked put into reverse the motor would rev up but it would not move, put into pare turned off waited a little bit car would then go but with very little power couldn't accelerate over 40 MPH again. Returned to dealership this time they replaced the clutch assemblies and updated the computer. I will be returning tomorrow for the third time in a month. The car only has 77,000 miles on it.

My vehicle has around 40k miles and the throttle body has given out and requires replacement. This part has broken on so many ford vehicles that the dealer states it is on back order for 3 months. We have no estimated time of availability for this part, yet this problem is not covered by a recall or customer satisfaction program (csp) for this particular model, however it is covered by a csp for other ford vehicles. Symptoms: driving on a city highway and vehicle looses power and stalls out.
