| Description of the problem | Second time engine stalled while driving in less than 2 weeks!!! 2016 ford f-150 xlt 2. 7l eco-boost model. This is the second time the engine has stalled and shut off during driving! Not even 3,600 miles on it yet. Typical stop and go traffic during rush hour. Went to accelerate after rolling along with traffic (<10 mph) and nothing happens. Tachometer stays at around 500 rpm and does not go anywhere. Since this was the second time this has happen within the last 2 weeks so i wasn't too surprised this time around. I put it in neutral and shut off ignition and try cranking it. Rpms would barely stutter around 400-500 rpm and would not stay on. Tried a few more attempts while still rolling in neutral. I had to brake to a stop, put it in park, and had attempted to crank it several more times until it finally started up and was idling correctly around 800-900 rpm. This is definitely a safety issue and should be investigated immediately. Dealer says oem has known issue with throttle body causing ford vehicles to stall while driving. Unfortunately, dealer says my vin is not part of vehicle models affected by this issue. Obviously it is happening to the 2016 f150s. Both of my incidents did not throw a code so there seems to be nothing dealer can do to fix the problem for the moment. I do not want to keep driving this vehicle with this defective part and unsafe condition, especially with my infant son in the rear cab. |
