I was driving in the highway going about 65 mph when without warning I started loosing speed and ended going 20mph. I was able to pull of to the shoulder and notice a wrench icon appear in the dash before the car lost power. It was an extremely scary situation and I was thankful I was able to get to the shoulder of the highway without any incident. I towed it to my Ford dealer which is still there being diagnose. I don't know what happen but I believe its a defection because nothing was done to cause it. These is a very dangerous defection and can cause the life of the driver and passangers. I want to make the Ford company aware of this situation and demand it takes action before a tragedy happens. I hope my Ford Flex is fixed but I will never feel fully safe in this vehicle again. I never knew that manufactures would be careless enough to place these defective cars on the road and now I am stuck with one. Please have a recall of these Ford vehicles before lives are lost.
