Car Stall Problems of Ford Flex

I was driving about 45 mile per hr. Then my Ford Flex started to stall so I had it towed to a near by repair shop , they looked over my vehicle and they came to the conclusion, that the water pimp had failed and coolant entered the block, so there for the engine needed to be replace. We are now in the process of the repair invoice 369486 02/28/2020.

We have a 2012 Ford Flex normally aspirated engine. Starting in August, we had an issue with our electronic throttle body which caused our car to shut down. We had the part replaced, shortly after a similar problem occurred. This was due to the dealership frying the computer. This was replaced, by the dealership, after calling Ford directly. In February, the electronic throttle body failed again. Replaced under warranty. The same issue occurred last night and the vehicle will be taken back to the dealership. All signs point toward the electronic throttle body again. Every time this issue arises, the car goes into a safe mode while traveling down busy streets. This results in speeds of around 5 miles per hour and can cause major safety problems. The vehicle and the part installed are no longer considered safe to drive any distance greater than five miles from our residence, in case we need to get home. To clarify, the vehicle was in motion .

Regarding NHTSA complaint no. 10876758. Had the car at the dealership this morning and nothing was found. They think it is the throttle body but can't repair it without authorization from Ford motor company. Service writer said he would call me if and when he got authorization (no idea when that might be). No offer was made to leave car until repairs were made and replace with a loaner. I drove the car back home approximately 25 miles one way. This afternoon I drove it to the grocery store with my wife riding along and upon returning home I was turning across two lanes of oncoming traffic onto the road I live on when the car stalled again. Dealership just called and said Ford will not authorize repair without the code showing on the reader. So, on to the next step.

There are several different incidences that have occurred. (1) while turning a corner or slowing down the a/c will shut down. (2) the control panel instruments will go all the way over to the right and then surge forward when turning a corner. (3) car has died on several occasions especially while trying to accelerate onto highway. (4) a/c will turn on by itself and blow on maximum even when power switch is turned off. (5) when car loses power, all codes are reset so dealer is unable to get a clear reason why car is doing this. We had a black box installed for two weeks with some results pinpointed but after it was "fixed" we continue to have the same problems. Dealer connected a computer while we drove around block and the computer diagnosis was that we were pushing the brake and gas at same time. . . Not possible! the reading was that the brake had been touched more than 2000 times while driving 20 miles. We have had this car in repair shop 8 times and no resolution yet. Dealer said they would stand behind vehicle with an extended warranty at no cost while we tried to find problems but now warranty is up and they want us to pay for extended warranty. We were told by dealership that if we apply for lemon law that we would most likely lose the case and it would only cost us money. According to texas law. . . This car definitely qualifies~ we are waiting to hear from our attorney. I hope no one else buys this type of vehicle~.

Our 2011 Ford Flex we bought "new" in October of 2010. It has all the bells & whistles & had a sticker price of almost $51,000 dollars! this car doesn't like to get wet! it stalls in the snow, rain, car wash & even puddles! it just "shuts down" in the middle of an intersection. . . . . It will "putt putt" & almost stall on highways. We came sooo close to getting killed! ugh. . . . We have taken this car in to (metro Ford in raynham) at least "4" times. The last time was just a couple of months ago & it was there for "4 weeks"! then this was it. . . . . . . . . We had to take our 19 yr old daughter to the er last thurs.
