P0570
Cruise Control Accel Signal Malfunction
DTC P0570, sometimes indicated as P057000 is an OBD diagnostic trouble code indicating a generic fault with the vehicle powertrain (i.e. engine and gearbox). This code identifies an error with the engine idling stability causing cruise control accel signal malfunction.
A P0570 code means that the cruise control system is not getting a signal from the throttle pedal. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as a broken or disconnected wire, a faulty sensor, or a problem with the cruise control system itself.
If you have a P0570 code, the first thing to do is check the wiring and connectors for damage or corrosion. If everything looks good, then you may need to replace the throttle position sensor. If the problem is with the cruise control system, you may need to have it repaired or replaced.

2014 FORD FUSION with 40100.0 miles
Car lost power on (non-interstate) highway as we were coming up to a four-way stop. When my wife tried to get the car moving again, it bucked and sputtered. The wrench light illuminated on the car's dash, which means "powertrain fault", according to Ford. The car barely ran and we pulled over to the side of the road, shut it off and restarted it after one minute. It then ran better and we were able to get home. After restarting, then wrench light went out. It has had a rough idle since then. The dealer found no stored dtcs from the incident, but after significant testing, the car set P0570 - unable to maintain idle speed. Dealer says it is a failing electronic throttle body but that it is not covered under the powertrain warranty. This is a serious safety issue as it failed without warning and could have put us in serious danger if we were on a crowded interstate highway. I do not feel safe driving it anywhere but on in-town trips and maybe on lightly-traveled back roads. I have been arguing with Ford (the company, not the Ford dealer) on the phone that they should cover the cost of replacing the throttle body. So far i have not been able to get anyone on the phone who can make that happen.
