You mean the fuel pressure inertia switch?
Shifted: they're designed to shut off the fuel pump in case of say, an accident

ford put those in after people started to catch fire in collisions in pinto's. i think just about every ford has them, you just push a button in the trunk or under the seat to reset it. that's still not as bad as the load sensing seats that will disable the ignition if you've got groceries on the passenger seat and no seatbelt around it. i forget what those were on, pita diagnosis.
yepperz all fords have em....you dont even need to be in a major accident for it to trip.....
Not unintentionally accelerating since 2009!!!!
If you have one It would probably be behind the carpet in the trunk. At least that's where they are on the fords.
my last car i think had one of those
