1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 04/12/2021

After 40 mile on the highway drive, I've got off the offramp and came to a red light. While I was stopped my truck started to idle rough for about 10 seconds and finally stalled. No check engine or warning lights appeared other than a notification on the dash screen stating to press brake to start. I then pressed the brake and pushed start and it turned on right away. I then drove in the city for another 20 miles with no problem and then evidently it happened again when I got to a stop. Restarted right away with no secondary issues. I took it to my local dealership. They kept it over night to run tests but there was no success on recreating the problem. Therefore, no repair was made. I do find this situation unsafe due to possible fault occurring at highway speeds or on a hill while driving.

2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 09/02/2020

After towing for more than 300 miles the engine will die every time I come to a slow down or stop. It will restart only to instantly die again unless the throttle is pressed revving the engine and dropping it into drive. This is very dangerous especially towing at busy intersections when stalling out can lead to getting t-boned. This only happens towing and never gives a code so Ford says they can't fix what they can't see.
