My vehicle was great till December 30th, when within an hour it had started chugging and then died. Since then was told spark plugs burnt which burned the coils and then destroyed computer. Then engine came on and am now told the catalytic convertor is gone to the tune of $1800. It cost me $1700 for the first repairs. What absolutely amazes me is that your vehicle can be in for all of the check ups, oil changes, and that the great computer system never had any alarms!!! I am very displeased with Ford, that can do nothing. I have never owned a Ford before and will never again.I would suggest that if you are thinking of buying a Ford... DON'T really think about it !!!!!

Leaving a parking garage, car shut down and two occasions. Started up and ran smoothly there after. This makes the third time this has happened. All happened at a low rate of speed. Took to Ford and they could not recreate the problem. Issue unresolved. The 2008 models had this issue.

While driving my 2010 Edge, the car stalled and wouldn't start again. Towed home. OBD2 codes all 6 coils and plugs. Recently replaced 3 different plugs due to gap. Have been told so many different things that it could be... none of them good. Probably the easiest suggestion would be the cam shaft position sensors. But even that is somewhat costly on a fixed income. I don't even want to think about having to pull the cam and all 6 coils and plugs!
What is wrong with my car?!?!? It was running great. When it stalled, there was no warning. Noticed during the event that the radio display flashed low battery which is weird. Scratching my head on this one. Any suggestions?
