Pulled out of a parking lot onto a busy street locally, car lost power and the orange wrench light came on. Would not go, all the car did was jerk and sputter. Engine did not shut off but would only coast/roll into the middle lane and managed to coast/roll into another business parking lot next door to where I pulled out from and once parked, I turned ignition off and back on. Wrench light went out and car started. No codes were apparently shown when hooked up to the machine at the car lot the next day (wrench light was still off) this is very scary and very dangerous whatever it is, it needs investigated and fixed so us Ford edge drivers can feel safe when driving. Also 1 week before this my check engine light came on, same code 3 times came up for eval, emissions ECT... Now no codes are showing since the wrench light came on Sunday and my car stopped moving.

My car is in need of a new water pump. This is a known repair needed in Ford V6 3.5 & 3.7-liter engines 2012-19 Explorer, Taurus, Edge & more. The water pump is placed in the engine so that a simple 1 hr. repair takes 10-12 hrs of labor costing customers thousands of dollars. There is no reason for this to not be on the recall list!!!!! This is confirmed by Ford dealers. There is no warning that comes up until the part has already failed, also causing other parts of the engine to be repaired.

Fuel pump fails without warning causing vehicle to stall in intersection of busy roadway. With some research and assistance from my local Ford dealership, we found a recall in the past for this exact issue effecting my year make and model. Not sure why I was not made aware of this until I almost caused an accident. I want this on record that I reported the issue. Recall # 14S30
