My vehicle has begun to stall out. It can happen at any random time while driving, while stopped, or while pulling out into traffic. I had my car towed to the shop this week and of course they say they couldn't get it to duplicate the issue. They replaced the fuel pressure sensor and it did not fix the issue!! my check engine light randomly goes off and on but when plugged in it isn't pulling any codes. I have a son and I live in memphis, TN and this is very dangerous. It is not only putting my life in danger but also my son's life as well as other drivers. I am literally scared to drive anywhere with my son in the vehicle out of fear my car is going to die and I am going to end up in a horrible crash! I know I am not the only one dealing with this issue. I have seen tons more online complaining about the same issue! unhappy with Ford and my vehicle at this point is an understatement. This needs to be fixed before someone ends up severely injured or dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Car will sporadically go into limp home mode while driving. Never seems to be an issue while parked or not moving. The wrench light comes on and I have to pull over and let it sit for a good 15 to 20 minutes. I can then start it back up and it runs like there is no problem. Mechanic can't find the issue because the check engine light disappears and no error code is given. Happens on the highway and regular city streets. Seems to be related to a known issue with this car. Happens a few times a year but seems to be getting worse. Electronic throttle body malfunction NHTSA preliminary evaluation #pe13003.
Check engine light came on. Used code checker to investigate and came up with code p144c. Ended up having to do with the canister purge valve and it had to be replaced. Cost - $326. 04 repairs completed at wray Ford, 2851 benton road, bossier city, la 318-686-7300, invoice number focs245906 on 21 Dec 2016 second item: problem with start/stop button. The wrench on the dash would light up. Only thing I could find out was look in the manual, which showed and told me nothing. Car would just arbitrarily shut down while driving !!! once the vehicle was stopped, I had to use a knife to pull the start/stop button out and then it would generally restart and the wrench on the dash would go off. Took to dealership and stated the ignition button was faulty. Originally taken to dealership on 11-1-2017 and they did not have a replacement part, stated they were on back order and had no idea when a new one would be available, in the meantime, Ford expected me to drive a vehicle that could potentially shut down at anytime, while turning in from of another vehicle at an intersection would have been a deadly event !! I filed a complaint with Ford motor company, Ford case number cas13448074 but never heard anything from Ford. I followed up with the dealership weekly on status of part. It finally came in around December 14th and I scheduled an appointment to have it replaced on December 18th. Cost - $361. 66 I want an investigation as to whether these are recurring issues and a recall should be made for these issues. The second one is a major safety issue.
The vehicle was started and was no more than 10 minutes from our house when it started smoking while being driven to work. Within a minute the check engine light came on, within another minute the car lost power. The gas pedal wouldn't work, etc etc. We were able to coast into a side street and exit the vehicle. Within a minute of that happening it burst into flames and was completely engulfed and destroyed.

When the car is warm, the vehicle will stall every time when restarted after it was turned off for less than and hour. Loses all throttle response, have had a few scares when turning onto a busy road and vehicle stalls. No check engine light.
On multiple occasions my car hesitated and stalled, usually when just taking off or pulling out into intersections. It has never done this while sitting at idle and only once while driving highway speed. Sometimes the check engine light does not come on and sometimes it comes on and then goes right back off. My mechanic could not pull a code after this happens.

Two years after that with only 38,000 miles same problem catalytic converted needed to be replaced again. The car has less than 50,000 miles and 3 times catalytic converter needed replaced.
