Electronic Stability Control problem #2

This letter is to document a significant issue with our Ford shelby gt350, VIN 1fa6p8jz8h5526334, model yr 2017, color: white/blue, current mileage: approximately 1600. In early March 2018 upon exiting a store parking onto and pulling onto yorba linda blvd the vehicle experienced a sudden power loss and engine stop. The vehicle would not restart as it rolled down the street. We managed to pull it to the curb. By cycling the ignition system the vehicle restarted on a fourth attempt. Each starter cycle was approximately 10-15 seconds. No warning lights were apparent pre or post the event. Approximately 1 week later, in mid-March 2018 the vehicle experienced the same power loss again while pulling away from a stop sign into an intersection, again in yorba linda, CA. The vehicle was pushed out of the intersection, the starter cycled, it cycled twice for approximately 15 seconds each period and on the third attempted restated. No warning lights were apparent pre or post the event. Most recently the vehicle experienced 2 dangerous events. The vehicle was going downhill on a 2 lane highway at approximately 60 mph when all power was lost. On a downhill the vehicle coasted in gear with compression engine braking slowing the vehicle. The vehicle was pulled over into the pull out. The instrument panel was fully functional but no engine power, no warning lights other than a yellow square saying the accessories were powered. No warning lights, no problem indicator lights. The engine started immediately after reaching a full stop with a single press of the ignition button. Later the same day while attempting to get to a dealership the vehicle again lost power while beginning to accelerate. Speed was 64 mph. The vehicle had no warning lights or other indicators illuminated. The vehicle was driven immediately to the nearest dealer. Ford has been notified.
