Engine stalls out, while driving the car around town. Has occurred twice, separated by a few weeks. No warning, or engine trouble or indicator lights prior or after the event. Occurs while driving a low to moderate speed both times, about 30 mph. Car can be restarted immediately after and drives fine. Have had mechanics check fuel and air sensors and lines and find no obvious defects. Other Ford Flex owners report similar problem since 2009. Rumor is that replacing the throttle body corrects the issue.
