My vehicle was accelerating on a straight section of road during rush hour (had at least a half tank of gas). I was pushing normally on the gas pedal to keep moving and suddenly, without warning, the car decelerated and lost power as if I ran out of gas. It came to a complete stop. No limp mode, I had to coast to a place to pull over. Power was on and all components were working except there was no gas when I pushed the gas pedal. The wrench icon lit up on the dashboard. When I turned off and then restarted the engine the gas pedal worked so I put it in "drive" and accelerated cautiously. After five minutes, I lost power again, just before entering a major highway. The sudden loss of power could have killed me on a highway, or in the middle of any busy intersection, not to mention harm other drivers and passengers. I took it to Ford service the next day and they said I had a bad throttle body. It was not contaminated, it just failed. They stated that this was the first time they saw a failed throttle body in a 2016 Edge. (13,000 miles). My husband said it happened to him once earlier this year, and he immediately called the service department for advice. He was instructed to turn the car off and it should be fine after starting it back up. It worked. That may be a short term solution - to get home. It is not a solution to this life threatening problem.
Takata recall autonation has sent a letter for recall on takata airbags but has no replacement airbags. There is also a recall for corroded gas tank. I see none of these in your recall database so I assume the recall has been rescinded. I was waiting for airbags to come in to get it repaired together. That never happened. This is a complaint about the process which leaves it unresolved by Ford.
