    My vehicle all of a sudden started to slow down suddenly like i had taken my foot off the gas. It started shuddering and my transmission light came on. I thought it was the transmission so i had it towed to the shop. After diagnosis, it showed my cylinders were misfiring. It was due to a bad coil which was causing the spark plugs to read at an extremely high voltage. They needed to replace all coils and all spark…

    Was driving at 45 mph when the car suddenly overheated and in a matter of seconds it cracked the block. The dealership it was towed to couldn't even tell me how something like that could have happened. This car has been well taken care of. Needless to say...i had to buy a whole new engine for it. I don't think this was anything that i did that made this happen. Honestly i think it is something ford should really…

    Since feb 2014, my 2007 ford edge seemed to be wanting to stall when i was driving and/or trying to accelerate.

It was "trying" to start and then it would shut down. I would try to start it again and once again, it was "trying" to…
