Consumer Description

AS INDICATED BY A NUMBER OF FLEX OWNERS, MY FLEX SIMPLY DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY GOING 70 MPH. NO WARNING - LIGHTS ON DASH WENT ON, LOST ALL POWER INCLUDING POWER STEERING. AFTER MUSCLING THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER, PUTTING IN PARK AND SITTING FOR A FEW MINUTES, IT STARTED BACK UP. TOOK TO DEALER WHO SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. HOW MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE NEED TO BE AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM BEFORE FORD AND NHTSA TAKE ACTION.
