I push my start button and it makes the starting nose and after a few minutes it starts and when I go to move it stalls out and then won't start again or starts and stalls again. But the next day drives fine. And it has been happening now for months even after we fixed the high rich codes it was giving out but now there's no codes appearing.

Vehicle stalls while driving down the street and has done this several times, both on city streets and on the highway. The date chosen for when this happened was the last time it happened. The battery will not keep a charge and a certified mechanic has had the car for 2 weeks and can not locate the reason the battery drains completely within 8 hours.

Purchased this car used (one owner) - have had the car since 9/2017 with no problems. Last week (5/04/18) car would not respond to start button. Thought it might have been a fluke so disregarded this issue as it did finally start after 5-6 tries. Last night (5/12/18) while traveling on a back road (approximately 35 mph) the car shut off totally. Loss of steering/brakes. My wife was able to get the car on the shoulder. Indicator lights were the amber wrench (powertrain) and a another red square (not sure what symbol). It took approximately 20 minutes before care would restart. Taking to dealership on 5/14 and hoping they do not tell me they are unaware of any issues. There are plenty of other owners here that are experiencing this issue. This could be life threatening if we were on the highway!

Car rolls on its own without depressing brake or engaging any gear. Vehicle has done this about 5 times in past 6 months and twice in the last 6 weeks. Car is very dangerous at "any speed" since it "runs" on its own. Ford should rename this Mkz hybrid vehicle either: Dmd for "driving miss daisy" or uas for "unsafe at zero" puf for "pure unadulterated fiction" Ford has lied about car performance (advertised 45 mpg city + highway for both 2013 & 2014 hybrid models) when I only get about 60% of that - 28 mpg (documented) in order to gain market share (hybrids esp. Lexus). Ford blames its own wind tunnel tests for overstated mpg (maybe tested with hurricane sandy at their back). Now, this car drives itself, a nice safety feature huh ? and, Ford never issued me any recall on its unique "invisible chauffeur driven" vehicle.
