Sounds like your car has had a disagreement in the throttle position. If this happens then the car can go into a number of different protection/guard modes which in some cases limits throttle angle etc.I would suggest taking it to Ford and getting them to check the fault codes. I've had no issues with mine so far.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
