2007 Ford Mustang: check engine light

Filed Aug 3, 2017 · Acceleration, Engine · 133,000 miles · CA

Both issues I have had with my car numerous times. The engine light has never come on and through research, I guess it has happened to many others. When in traffic moving slowly, warm temperature, my car stalls for no apparent reason. Today, it did while turning left at a corner. I almost got hit. I have to immediately shift to neutral and restart the car. It happens during rush hour so I end up making other drivers angry which is dangerous. The other ongoing issue I have is the car accelerating by itself. This has been happening for years and has got increasingly worse. I now have other witness' people who have driven the car and had it happen. At midas where I get my car repaired, they drove it and couldn't figure out the issue but definitely scared him. The mechanic thought it is computer related. They tried to find a fix online but couldn't. Someone hit my car and it was at a shop being repaired for 2 weeks. This is a very large operation. When I went to pick it up the mechanic there said that everyone, after driving my car once, refused to drive it again. It scared them to death. She explained how it kept accelerating and they didn't even have their foot on the gas, there were no car mats, no explanation. They will have their foot on the brake and it will start reving. When I'm stopped at lights it does. When I start the car, still in park, it starts.they stated they don't ever want to drive and/or park it again. They said it was very dangerous. I know ford denies the issue but this is all over the internet. I don't know what to do. I am aware of the issue so I drive it like it's a stick shift in traffic and always have my foot ready for it to accelerate. I can't afford to buy a new call and would not feel comfortable selling it to someone. I do not want to put someone's life at risk. I know someone has to die for something to happen but this is a major problem

I have a 2007manual mustang shelby gt with 60000 miles every time I slow down to stop the car stalls. So far I have owned 3 mustangs and it has done it on all 3 of them. Obviously this isn't just a coincidence it has to be a manufacturer problem I've cleaned the throttle body done all the required maintenances changed some sensors nothing no check engine light no vacuum leaks it's impossible to troubleshoot

This has happened multiple times, yesterday being the most recent. While driving down the highway, the car will drop into limp home mode and the check engine light will come on. It is the exact same problem described in ford's consumer satisfaction program 13n03. They will not cover the mustang, as it was not part of the program. It should have been.

Since I bought my car about 3 to 4 months ago, I have had my car into the ford dealership 4 times, to have the engine light checked. It came on the 1st time the day after I bought it, and has come on 3 times since at random times. The ford service dept. Has put it through the machines they have, and have not been able to find the "very small evaporatve leak" they say it has, they have contacted ford motor company and all they can say is the system is too sensitive for some reason and until they can find a fix for it, if they can I will just have to keep bringing it in every time it comes on and have them run it through the machine and turn the light off.
