NHTSA Complaint #10816637 — 2015 FORD EDGE

THIS REPORT IS AN UPDATE TO COMPLAINT: 10788647. THIS VEHICLE, A 2015 FORD EDGE SEL WITH A 3.5L ENGINE, WAS REPAIRED BY A FORD DEALERSHIP FOR A STALLING/LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP HAD THE VEHICLE FROM NOVEMBER 5-13, 2015, AND REPROGRAMED THE PCM IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE STALLING CONDITION. INITIALLY, THIS ACTION SEEMED TO RESOLVE THE STALLING ISSUE. HOWEVER, IN RECENT DAYS THE GAS MILEAGE HAS DROPPED ABOUT 3 MPG, AND ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 2015, AT 7:25PM THE EDGE STALLED WILL DRIVING (NOT ACCELERATING, DECELERATING, OR TURNING) AND THE ENGINE QUIT. THE VEHICLE SIMPLE STALLED AND LOST TOTAL POWER WHILE DRIVING. THERE WERE NO WARNING OR ERROR LIGHTS. THE ONLY MESSAGE WAS "FULL ACCESSORY POWER ACTIVE." I HAD TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK IN ORDER TO RESTART, WHICH I WAS ABLE TO DO. FORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT ON A BUSY ROADWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME TO BRING THEM THE VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY, DECEMBER, 23, 2015, AND THE VEHICLE HAS REMAINED IN THEIR POSSESSION SINCE THAT TIME. THIS ISSUE IS DANGEROUS. I LIVE IN A MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA AND TRAVEL INTERSTATES EVERYDAY. IF IT STALLS WHILE I AM ON THE INTERSTATE, THE SITUATION COULD BE DISASTROUS.
