My 2004 Lincoln Ls has never been in an accident. Approximately 60 days ago my "check engine" light came on after getting bad gas. Was able to reset by removing the battery and reinstalling. No engine light on all the time. No acceleration, and today got etc engine failure mode. Stopped car, restarted and would then go more than the 15 mph in "failure mode". But still doesn't accelerate like it should.
(1) driving on a two lane curvy mountainous road passing a logging truck. (2) car engine failed resulting in no power, no stearing control and no brakes. There was no prior warning such as lights or messages on the instrument console. The logging truck narrowly missed us as did the oncoming traffic. We were very close to being killed or seriously injured. (3) the failure was the engine mass air flow (maf) sensor resulting in shut down of the engine.
