I received an error message stating hill assist unavailable (i wasn't on a hill at all), then a wrench light appeared along with an engine light and airbag light turned on as well. I was unable to accelerate when pushing the petal. Meanwhile there is traffic behind me forced to move around my vehicle almost causing…

We've been experiencing an intermittent exhaust and sulfur odor in the cabin of our vehicle since we purchased it last july. The odor is present while running and parked, while idling at stop lights, while coasting along with traffic on the freeway, while accelerating or not, speed does not seem to matter. The fumes and odor have gotten stronger and have become so strong that we can't even drive the vehicle with the…

This time was driving about 35-40 mpg approaching an intersection when the vehicle lost all engine power and i coasted to the stop…

Owned for 5 months. Engine has died twice while driving like others with display showing "full power accessory active". Both have been at low speed (around 5-10 mph) and have had to place in park before i could restart the engine. One was decelerating from ~25 mph on a residential street, and the other was while driving through an apartment complex. Takes about 30 seconds to figure out what is happening and restart.

When driving my vehicle, the rpms sky rocket but won't change. It's not shifting gears as an automatic is supposed to. Also, the engine has been making a weird noise on and off and when we took it in, they turned it on and pressed the gas and said it was fine. Never had it on record or anything. The fuel pump went out about 23k and now the car is having the same issue at 50k with the fuel pump or the same symptoms…

My car has lost all power while driving multiple times. The dash says "full power accessory active". I have to put the car in park and restart it. The last time i was driving 60 mph on a busy highway so this could have been a very dangerous situation especially if i was somewhere that didn't have a an area for me to pull over or had i been stuck in the middle lane! This needs to be recalled immediately!

When merging onto the interstate and you accelerate and go from approximately 40 mph to 75 pmh there is always a smoking -burning smell coming out of the a/c exhaust vents inside the passenger compartment of the car. I had an explorer before and it did the same thing. I thought my engine was going to blow up even though it only had approximately 30k miles on it so i traded it. Now this edge is doing the same thing…

Since i purchased the vehicle it has been making a jerking effect after it passes 1st gear to 2nd. The jerking effect seems to be coming from the motor. I took it to the dealer and the dealer said there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. To this day it still has the jerking effect.

Multiple times the car suddenly lost all power. Engine shuts off, power steering gone and all the warning lights on the dash light up. This has happened on expressways, city streets and country roads, each time impeding the flow of traffic and people don't respond well to me when this happens. I have come very close to being hit by other cars. Each time i have pushed the starter button to shut it off even though it…

Engine goes to idle while underway, orange wrench appears on panel, no response from throttle. Happens without warning at any time, high or low speed. Extremely dangerous. I cannot imagine why there has been no recall on this.

My 2015 ford edge suddenly lost power without any warning as i was driving at a slow speed on my residential street. Fortunately i was not in a high-speed traffic area, as this situation is obviously a serious one. The next day i took my car to the dealer and they were aware of this issue happening in ford vehicles. It was a defective throttle body and they were able to replace it the same day. I am hoping this new…
