SOURCE: 2005 Ford Freestyle compressor went bad, same mileage

Get an estimate from a Ford dealer. Your problem may not take all the parts that Goodyear wants to put in. The dealer has recall info and may work with you to keep a Ford customer. You say your compressor went bad, but that may be the result of a problem and not the cause.
You can also try independent shops rather than franchises. But you may not know of any. Sometimes I ask at Police stations if I need help for reliable service places.

SOURCE: engine shuts off while driving

I would suspect a faulty EGR valve, but is the check engine light on? If it is, take the vehicle to an autoparts store and have them use a scan tool to retrieve the fault code(s) stored in the computer. Most parts stores offer this service free of charge. That will narrow the search for the problem. Sure hope this helped.

SOURCE: Truck just stops b- 2005 Ford F150 80,000 miles

I had the same issue i changed the fuel fillter it was a little dirty but not bad. Still had problem then i cleaned out the throtel it worked good for a while. Ended up replacing the throtel its about $250 if you do it yourself which is not hard to do. The problem is the electronic throtel control but you have to replace the whole thing not sold seperatly hope that helps. Been running great did that 15,000 miles ago.

SOURCE: do I need to change transmission fluid on my 2005 ford freestyle

The high pressure filter and fluid are supposed to be changed at 60k intervals. Ford has a very specific oil for this transmission and the service fee will be $300 to $450 - mine was around $420.

No other car place will touch the CVS transmission in a Ford Freestyle and most Ford dealerships are clueless on thier maintenance and repairs. On most issues that crop up the first thing they want to do is swap it out - for $4000+.

How to install on a Ford freestyle 2007 3.0 liter / Serpentine belt replacement

Use a ratchet or breaker to release tension and route the new belt as shown here: http://serpentinebelthq.com/2005-ford-freestyle-v6-3-0l-serpentine-belt-diagram/ . The engine in the 2007 is the same as the 2005 shown on the link. Typically this job should take about 15 to 20 minutes at most. It helps, btw, to have a helper to hold that tension off the belt path until the belt is in place, then slowly release the tensioner.

Failsafe engine mode

go to a parts store and have the codes read(most of them will do it for next to nothing. There is also more than likely some maintenance needed. get back to me when you have the codes and we can diagnose this together.
Just because there is a code does not necessarily mean that part is bad, but an area to test to find the actual problem.

Cluster panel goes crazy on 2005 Ford Freestyle, gages, radio, air all goes off, gauges all shut down. What is the problem and possible cost to fix it?

Sounds like you may need a battery once you replace the battery check to make sure the alternator is charging.

2005 freestyle ford. I was driving it and I hit my breaks really hard and it died. then I restarted it and a wrench light came on. Can you tell me what that means?

Your computer is telling you that your car is in need of service. I can't exactly tell you what it means without codes. But what i can tell you it most likely has to do with your brakes.
