Default Re: Dead Band ON Throttle

The throttle lag that you describe IS NOT typical of the 5R55-equipped cars. I've tuned and driven a boatload of these from 05 to 07. Ask the dealer to let you drive another car on the lot and see if the feeling is the same...chances are it is not and you're dealing with a problem unique to your car. Ford has gone to great lengths to make sure that the ETC provides the same driver feedback as people are accustomed to with the cable actuated throttle controls. I'd get firm with your dealer to either address your concerns or take the car back under the Lemon Laws of your state.
