2009 FORD FLEX Vehicle Speed Control Problems

My Flex has repeatedly lost power while driving. I can feel the car lose power, and the yellow wrench light comes on. After reading up on it, I learned that you have to turn the vehicle off, wherever you are, and restart it after a few minutes. The wrench light turns off, and the car runs as normal, with no records of codes. This is talked about over and over in online forums. The safety issue is that it has happened on the freeway several times while traveling at a high rate of speed. The car loses power, and you cannot accelerate. You have to find a way to stop immediately, put the car in park (and listen to the transmission clunk) and turn it off. This last instance put me in harms way on the freeway. The car lost power while traveling 70mph. I immediately lost speed and had...

WHILE BRAKING AND PARKING MY VEHICLE, MY VEHICLE HAD UNWANTED ACCELERATION. GOING AS HIGH AS 120MPH AND HOLDING THE BRAKE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL MOVING. I HAD TO HURRY AND SHIFT INTO PARK AND TURN OFF MY VEHICLE. OTHER TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE COMING STOP AND IT WOULD GO UP TO ABOUT 40MPH AND I WOULD DESPERATELY HOLD THE BRAKE SCARED I WOULD HIT SOMEONE

TAKATA RECALL THE AIR BAGS ARE OFF AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHES SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING IT COMES IN MY DASHBOARD THO REMOVE ALL OBJECTS FROM BEHIND THE PASSENGER SIT OR DRIVER SIT WHEN THERE IS NOTHING THERE AND NOW IT DOESN'T WANNA ACELRATE MY CAR AT ALL IT PARKED NOW FOR 3 MONTHS

MY FLEX STARTED HAVING A HARD JERK AND BANG WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO PARK. WAS NOT ALWAYS BUT FREQUENT. THE CAR STARTED TO RUN HOT WHEN SITTING IN A DRIVE THRU OR TRAFFIC BUT WOULD GO RIGHT BACK DOWN WHEN I STARTED MOVING. I TOOK IT INTO S MECHANIC AND HE REPLACED THE FAN. AFTER REPLACING THE FAN THE CAR BEGAN TO HAVE A REALLY BAD GRINDING NOISE WHEN IDLING OR TRAVELING. DO BAD I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE IT. I TOOK IT INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND AFTER 2 DAYS THEY CALL AND SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. WITHIN 4 MINUTES I GET ANOTHER CALL DAYING I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE CAR WOULD ECCELLERATE ON ITS OWN, SHUT OFF INTERMITTENTLY, AND CAR WOULD LAG BETWEEN 3RD AND 4TH GEARS. FORD DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME TO HAVE A KNEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN. CAR WILL SHIFT PROPERLY MOST...

DRIVING STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN NOTICED THE WRENCH LIGHT ON (HAPPENS OFTEN WHILE THIS HAPPENS WILL NOT ACCELERATE LIKE NORMAL UNTIL IT HITS 2-3RD GEAR). I PRESS THE GAS TO ACCELERATE AFTER MAKING THE TURN I HAD TO MAKE ANOTHER TURN ABOUT 1/4 MILE UP THE STREET. I RELEASED THE GAS TO MAKE THE TURN BUT MY CAR KEPT ACCELERATING IT WAS NOT GOING VERY FAST BUT THE ENGINE WAS ACCELERATING PUSHING THE RPMS UP TO 6000. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE GAS AND NOTHING WAS PRESSING THE GAS NO FLOOR MAT OR ITEMS IN THE WAY OF THE PEDALS. I PRESSED ON THE BREAK (WITH THE ENGINE STILL ACCELERATING) PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND PULLED OVER. TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE CAR RAN FINE AFTER RESTARTED IT. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AT ANY POINT JUST THE WRENCH LIGHT. THE LIGHT...
