CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2016 Edge is starting to show a similar trend to the prior model year of the engine stalling while driving, which owners report is typically caused by low-mileage problems with the throttle body. This is typically considered a safety defect.
Was merging onto the expressway and while accelerating the car just stopped accelerating all together. The Check Engine Warning Light blinked 3 times, notification popped up stating that the vehicle had Low Oil Pressure and then the Check Your Service Manual Light came on as well. Pulled off on the very next exit and turned the vehicle off. Restarted the vehicle and everything ran perfectly fine. This has happened to me 3 other instances and each time when I brought the vehicle into the dealership they stated to me that I have to come in when the light is staying on the dashboard so that they can diagnose the problem. It is extremely frightening situation when merging onto the expressway and the vehicle just stops accelerating no matter how much you push down the gas pedal.
I was doing 65 on expressway and the car just stopped accelerating. Had to pull off to the side during rush hour.
Waited 5-10 minutes, on phone with husband, then started the car, backed up a little and then went forward to see if I moved. It started moving so I made it home safely. Now I don't trust it!😡😡😡
