Vehicle suddenly loses power the wrench light comes on and the vehicle will not go when pushing the accelerator. The vehicle has to be turned off and restarted before it becomes mobile again.
While driving at a high speed (highways, interstate, etc) the vehicle stutters - almost like an extreme downshift. Dealer performed a lead frame recall repair to the transmission but the vehicle continues to do it. It causes extreme anxiety to the driver and passenger, especially when it happens in the "middle of nowhere".

The number four spark plug issue with the 5.4L V8 engine and phaser caused my engine to fail. This is the second Ford vehicle that I have owned that this happened to and Ford has done nothing to resolve this long known issue with the phasers and number four spark plugs. Please help small business owners who depend on vehicles. Ford needs to either pay for replacement motors or something. I spent $5000 on a new motor and Ford told me it is a known issue and to contact your Agency as it is under investigation.
While in motion on an Oregon coastal highway at about 35 mph vehicle hesitated made a loud noise and quit. At the time vehicle had about 72000 miles on it, and never gave a warning indicator, showing anything was wrong. As a result the engine had to be replaced. The only indicator the servicing dealer provided regarding the failure was a misfire in number 3. the product is defective either in construction or software as non warning was giving that anything was wrong. Previously on 2 different occasions at 2 different locations I took vehicle in because it seemed to be idling low and both dealers stated nothing wrong.
The contact owns a 2013 Ford Expedition. While driving approximately 73 mph with the cruise control activated, the service indicator suddenly illuminated and the vehicle lost power and reduced speed. The driver coasted to the side of the road and stopped the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the throttle body was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired and the failure was remedied. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 32,000.
The throttle is erratic. Sometimes acceleration from a stop is smooth and sometimes its as if the throttle is binding against something. Other times the throttle is depressed and nothing happens until the vehicle suddenly lurches forward. The last episode was pulling into a parking place and the engine suddenly went into idle. I mashed the gas more and more and it suddenly almost lurched over the curb. I have had it to[xxx] in plano Texas on several occasions, even leaving it for several days for them to drive. They changed several items on the transmission, but in the last few days it has worsened(more frequent). There are no error codes, but it is becoming unsafe to drive. I have to leave the car with a parking valet when my wife receives medical treatment and this could be problematic.
