Description of the problem	2016 ford f-150 xlt 2. 7l ecoboost automatic model with approximately 3,400 miles. Had already driven about 4-5 miles with engine already warmed up. Dry weather and about 69 degrees f outside. Came up to stop light with other vehicles ahead slowed down. Came to a complete stop and the auto-stop function engaged and the engine shut off. The roadway was fairly level. Waited approximately 20-30 seconds until light turned green. Traffic ahead started to move forward. I let off the brakes and the auto-start engaged. I continued to ease off brakes and allowed the truck to roll and idle forward with the flow of the vehicles ahead. I then applied my foot on the accelerator and began accelerating with the flow of the traffic. All of a sudden, the engine shuts off. At first i didn't realize it had shut off and was surprised that i wasn't able to accelerate anymore. Then i looked at instrument panel and saw that the speedometer was reading 17 mph and slowly dropping as the truck was just coasting along. My first thought was that maybe i had accidentally thrown it into neutral somehow, but the gear was still in "d" and applying gas did not move the tachometer as it had dropped to zero. Then i saw the battery symbol pop up. This is when i realized the engine had shut off during acceleration, possibly during gear shift sequence. At this point the vehicle is still rolling roughly 10 mph, so i engage it into neutral and crank the ignition and it starts up again. There is traffic behind me at this point so i change gear into "d" and am then able to accelerate normally up to proper speed. I could not recreate this again for the next 5-6 miles home, even with numerous stop lights where i would recreate the same auto-stop/start and accelerate actions.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
