I am the second owner of a 2006 Ford Freestyle. My family and I loved this car until the dreaded wrench and engine light came on!! I was driving on the street one day with a car full of kids everything was fine and dandy until the wrench light came on. The car lost power all of a sudden and the car went in to "limp mode" the car started to surge, shake and jerk. We were able to make it home ok but the car was not driveable after that.
I was told by a local mechanic it might be the throttle body? I changed the throttle body and did an oil change to both transmission and motor but the problem was till there! I checked the glove compartment and found an invoice from a Ford dealership where it showed it was taken in for a similar issue and the first owner was not charged anything.
I called Ford and they told me they were gonna charge me $160 just to run a diagnostic test! ugh!!
