Engine stalls while driving by model year
What owners say
Vehicle starts and rides for about 20 miles, then if I have to stop for some reason the car stalls especially if I have to back up. This happens almost dailly. No accidents yet but I am afraid I will cause a serious accident with this problem. I think my car should be recalled and have thid problem fixed.
This part is currently involved in class action lawsuit in san francisco in the alameda county superioir court. Judge michael ballachey has issued a preliminary decision to order a recall on as many as 2 million vehicles model years 1983-95. Unfortunately, I couldn't wait for the recall since my vehicle had stalled twice in the last 2 months. I felt I had to payfor a artial correction (new part relocated in the same space) and wait out the results of the law suit. If a recall is ordered and if ford doesn't appeal, I will need to have the part relocated to a different part of the engine since overheating causes eventual part failure. My mechanic did not want to relocate the part without directions from the ford motor company.
While driving the vehicle at any speed,the vehicle engine shuts down, causing the vehicle to stall.
Intermittent stalling.
