What I would do in your case is get both of the front wheels off of the ground, and then in neutral, see if either resists when turning by hand. (Verifying the brake caliper isn't sticking) Then try moving wheel in, out up and down to see if you have excessive movement due to a bad ball joint, tie rod end, or front end part. (Make sure your tire pressure is good also.)

SOURCE: Have a 2005 2 litre

this problem could be caused by a number of things as its common rail which is electronicaly controlled but first thing i would do is to make a gasket from a coca cola can to block off the EGR valve you make the gasket the same as the old one but do not cut the middle out so it effectivly blocks it off ,if this doesnt work then its a bosch injection specialist garage to have a look as this is complicated software and i have yet to see a general garage with the right software to read anything ,its made that way iam afraid to stop general garages

2005 Ford Five Hundred. Once the car warms up and you try to come to stop without putting in neutral the car just revs high but won't move.

Question edited into written English.
Question moved to model category.

It sounds like you have and unusual and flawed driving technique.

Manual or Automatic?

Automatic. You never use neutral unless you are in a car wash that drags your car by the wheels. Decelerate, foot on the brake and into Park. Your right foot does both brake and accelerator, left foot does nothing. I saw a lady 2 days ago with left foot on the brake and right foot on the accelerator.

Manual. Downshift through the gears, right foot on the brake, left foot on the clutch and into neutral and hand brake on.

If you are doing that, the vehicle needs diagnosis why it is happening.

2003 Altima 2.5 Deceleration Jerky above 40 mph and pulls left momentarily

Get the front end jacked up and safely supported and check out the control arm bushings for looseness, the CV joints and if noting found pull the left wheel and brake caliper off and make sure the calipers slides or pins are clean and properly lubed to allow the caliper to release properly.

All dash lights spontaneously come on. Go off in steps as decelerate. Off at stop. Come back on as accelerate.

At highway speed, as the car transitions from a set speed to slight deceleration (slight easing off the gas pedal) or from a hard deceleration (foot completely off the gas pedal) to a very slight...

sounds like your egr valve is opening too far at part throttle and sticking open. it is actuated by solenoids that open and let engine vacuum in. you were on a good path in checking the vacuum lines. however this may require replacing the egr valve and gasket. the egr valve is circular in shape on top and usually is bolted down with two bolts. its located on the engine side facing the firewall.

Acceleration no air, foot off gas air barely blows out vents

The vent is controlled by vacuum. Check the condition of the vacuum hose associated with the vent control. What is happening is when you decelerate, the intake manifold vacuum increases, and a diaphram is slightly pulled giving you air in the vent but very little. In normal condition the diaphram wont even pull. Solution is check for a vacuum leak in the vent control trace it coming from the intake manifold.
