2017 Ford Focus LZ Sport - Service Engine Now

[Waldo007]

Hi there,
Apologies for the long post.

HELP PLEASE!!

I bought a 2017 Ford Focus LZ Sport Auto from a reputable dealership approx 10 months ago now at just over 30,000 kms on the clock

About 1 month ago, I stopped at a red light and the car suddenly started displaying ENGINE SERVICE NOW and a spanner on the dash with the check engine light on. Car also went into what I would call a limp mode...no power when I pressed the accelerator peddle.

Flicked hazard lights on and left car switched off for about 3 - 5 minutes. Started engine again and it's started fine but still had the check engine light on (no more Engine Service Now message).

Called my mechanic and he came to scan the car...it came up with code P2111..Throttle ACTUATOR 'A' Control system - Stuck open.

He cleared the code and said he wiped around the PTM (PowerPoint module) and asked me to monitor it. He said he wiped around the PTM as it could have carbon and debris or something like that getting in the way of a sensor.

It's now 4 weeks since and it happened again last night.

I am concerned that the car will stop like this on a freeway or middle of intersection and cause serious accident.

Please has anyone experienced or is experiencing this and how is it fixed?

I don't feel confident driving this car anymore.

Other than this issue the car has been so reliable and smooth to drive. Its now cli ked over 40,000kms
