Description of the problem | Purchased new 2014 edge in august 2014. Incident occurred on october 18, 2015 at 19,900 miles. On a clear, sunny, sunday drove from 9:00 am northwest of austin, texas about 250 miles with several stops along the way to 3:00 pm. Entering galveston, texas. No problems of any kind along the way. Entering town, driving straight and level along road in clear weather, dry smooth road about 30 mph. Engine suddenly quit - dead. Coasted into (fortunate) parking lot. Noted bright red oil pressure light came on while coasting - other lights also but could not read them due to stressful situation. Checked oil level in parking lot - full and normal. Tried starting engine - started right up with no problem. Started and stopped engine several times - all with no problem. Cautiously continued driving in galveston and returned back to dealership near home. No further problems with engine. Dealership service could find no problem and had no real idea what caused engine to suddenly die while driving. Problem has not repeated - yet. |
