We were on the way back from the grocery store on September 4th, 2021. We were traveling on the freeway at about 60mph when the car suddenly lost power. The only warning light was a wrench on the display. All electrical power remained on but there was no engine power and no acceleration. We were fortunate there was a shoulder where I was able to pull over. I coasted the car down the exit and onto a street away from traffic. I waited about 10 minutes, turned the car off and turned it back on and it started. The wrench light on the display was off. I called the local Ford Dealership and the Service Advisor said there were no recalls and that I would need to pay for a diagnostic check. The issue has not reoccurred.

Vehicle has outside door lock controls, built into the front door handles. These are activated by sensors built into the handles. Over the last two days the sensors have intermittently.failed to work. When asked members of a Ford Flex chat board to which I belong have told me several have had similar failures, and one said his 2014 Flex was fixed under a manufacturer's recall. I just checked, and there is no outstanding recall on my 2015 Flex. Although I am able to gain entry with my remote fob, this seems a safety related situation in that the driver of such a vehicle becomes accustomed to leaving the remote in a pocket or purse, and if the door sensor fails to unlock the door when the vehicle is parked in a traffic way, the driver could be exopsed to danger from passing traffic while trying to understand what has happened. This situation occurs when the vehicle is parked, either in a parking lot or on street-side. It does not occur when the vehicle engine is running or in motion.

Exhaust leak into vehicle when going up hills or accelerating. Dealer testing showed high levels of carbon monoxide in vehicle. After being in the shop for 9 continuous weeks they have reduced but not eliminated the exhaust leak
