On monday (labor day), i was driving and started to make a right turn when the car stalled. i was beside a gas stationed so i managed to pull in (very hard to steer) and i noticed the low oil pressure icon on. i came to a stop and pushed the start button and the car started and drove without any more problems. my husband checked the oil when i got home and it is full. while at long lewis ford in hoover, this morning to have it checked we heard a woman describe the same scenario with her ford. she stated it stalled about 3 or 4 times on her while driving. i feel this is a very serious issue and sounds similar to the issue one of the other automobile models had causing death and injury.
When driving the car shut off and lost total power. lost steering, braking, and engine while driving down the road at 50 + miles per an hour.
Engine died, message on screen said [no key detected].i managed to pull over to shoulder and stop. car restarted. took car to lincoln dealer the next morning. they said they couldn't find any reason for the problem. still very concerned and that it may happen again. *tr
Driving at 50 mph, i lost power steering, then realized engine shut off. was able to drift over to get off road and stop car. engine was able to start and run fine after that. i lost all confidence in car, and dealer swapped me another car. *tr
