Second time engine stalled while driving in less than 2 weeks!!! 2016 ford f-150 xlt 2.7l eco-boost model. This is the second time the engine has stalled and shut off during driving! Not even 3,600 miles on it yet. Typical stop and go traffic during rush hour. Went to accelerate after rolling along with traffic (<10 mph) and nothing happens. Tachometer stays at around 500 rpm and does not go anywhere. Since this was…

Driving down the highway, doing about 60 to 65 mph, noticed that i was slowing down slightly, went to give it more gas, looked down at the dashboard and realized that the engine wasn't on (no rpms on tachometer). The screen on the dashboard had a service warning for the parking brake with a lightning bolt idiot light on (not sure what it was, didn't get the chance to look in the manual). I don't know if the power…

Engine
So i've got 16,000 miles on my new 2016 f150 truck. Last week i was cruising down the highway in the fast lane when all of a sudden the truck shudders then loses all drivetrain power. The engine was still on but only operating at btwn 600 and 800 rpms but the accelerator was unresponsive. Was no fun trying to make it to the shoulder with no power. One week later, same thing twice on my way home from work. Called the…

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 ford f-150. While driving 65 mph, the vehicle stalled and the check engine and traction control warning lights illuminated.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the throttle body failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle…

Electronic Stability Control · Engine · Service Brakes
My 2016 f150 has adaptive cruise control ("acc") that applies brakes in the event a vehicle is detected in lane ahead in order to match speed and maintain safe distance. F150 also has collision avoidance system that increases sensitivity of brakes if imminent collision is detected. 2015 ford f150 has been subject to a recall (nhtsa campaign number: 15v614000) to fix problems with acc - the acc may falsely detect an…
