2020 FORD FOCUS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDING UNINTENDED ACCELERATION.

Vehicle enters deep sleep mode within minutes of parking and won’t start again until it is jump started. This software problem has left me stranded three times.

This has happened a few times sporadically since I have owned the vehicle in 2020. As I am driving it will alert me to stop safely now. The car will loose power and not allow me to go past 15 mph. The screen will go blank and the ac will not throw cool air. This is concerning because since the car looses power, it is dangerous if I am at a fast speed. Once I pull over, sometimes I cannot turn off the car. And if I do turn it off, I cannot turn it back on for a few minutes.

On June7th I was driving home in my 2020 hybrid escape when the motor quit and the car came to a stop, then smoke started coming out from under the hood, I opened the hood and flames shot out at the back side of the motor on the passenger side, oil was leaking on to the road and on fire, I called the fire department, when they got there all the fire finally went out as the oil burned up.

This is a hybrid and now (8/29/2022) 2nd incident of loss of power while driving on a busy highway along with error message Stop Safely Now. The gas motor fails to turn on and the electric motor and battery are too small to power the vehicle for more than a few hundred feet. The dealer performed TSB20-2365 back in November, 2020 to fix this problem. But now 22 months later it has returned. Like before, put the selector in Park and it locks up, can't even shift to Neutral to push the vehicle off of the highway. Someone is going to get killed due to this problem.
