Consumer Description

while running car suddenly looses power and several engine lights come on, car does not accelerate becoming dangerous on the highway. Needed to pull over and turn the car off, wait a few minutes and turn it back on and then it works fine until the next episode. This is happening all the time and Ford Dealership can not find the problem. Ford Dealership mechanic drove the car and it happened to him while driving, replaced parts for about $1800 and the car is still doing the same thing! I have read blogs from many years ago and there are many Ford models with the same problem. I don't understand why there is no recall for this
