2016 Ford Figo TDCI accelerator issue

There was no fault seen on the dashboard on both occasions.

bullrun87 recently shared this with other BHPians.

I am facing a strange issue with my 2016 figo TDCI. Today, while coming to work, I was about 500m into the drive when the car stopped accelerating. I was at 30 km/h in 3rd and speed wasn't increasing so I downshifted to 2nd and then to first but engine rpm would not increase and the car kept slowing down. I managed to stall the car while trying different gear and clutch combinations, but on restarting, the car was back to normal!

I faced a similar issue last month where as soon as I took my car out of the driveway, the car stopped responding to the accelerator input but on pumping the accelerator a few times, the car went back to normal. What could be the issue?

There was no fault seen on the dashboard on both occasions.

Thanks to bulrun87 once again! Check out BHPian comments for more insights & information.
