| Description of the problem | Follow-up to nhtsa id numbers: 11047965 and 11055106. Engine shutdown at speed on highway without warning. First incident on highway at speed in center of 3 lanes. After first incident, filed nhtsa complaint 11047965, took car to dealer and replaced fuel pressure sensor based on fault code. About 2 weeks and 400 miles later, 2nd and 3rd engine shutdown incidents within 15 minutes at speed on interstate. Filed nhtsa complaint 11055106 and replaced throttle body based on dealer recommendation (no codes). About 2 weeks and 600 miles later, 4th engine shutdown occurrence, this time at 35 mph on neighborhood street. As before engine shutdown results in loss of propulsion, power steering, and power brakes. After stopping, able to restart engine normally and continue without further incident. Engine shutdown is accompanied by no warnings, alarms, or indications other then the instrument panel going dark and the loss of propulsion. So far have been fortunate to navigate to the right shoulder without collision and coast to a stop in all 4 occurrences, though this is dangerous in a heavy traffic environment. My online research indicates this is a recurring problem on lincoln mkx and ford edge for many other drivers and dealers are at a loss to explain or successfully repair. Manufacturer needs to identify cause and repair beofre someone gets killed. |
