Automatic question
Hi all you mechanics out there?
Wife has a Ford Fiesta automatic. When cold the vehicle stalls when it comes to a stop. I didn't think it was possible to stall an automatic. Any ideas what's wrong. TIA. DAB. |

Automatic question
Well what year is this Fiesta and how many miles on it.
One component that will definetely cause this problem when it fails is the EGR Valve. BTW, you do know this is a Ford Explorer newsgroup right? Good luck. Sam in Raleigh.

If it doesn't unlock the engine cannot continue to run if the car is not moving. |
