 Description of the problemWhile driving at 35mph in the city, the car lost all power, while it was able to steer and brake, the gas pedal did not work, rpm slowed to 500 and the car coasted to a stop. The wrench warning light turned on. I turned off the ignition and when i restarted the car, it ran well. The same situation and sequence occurred 24 hours later. I took the care to a local ford dealer who said that the computer revealed no issues. They kept the car and were able to experience the loss of power on a test drive. According to the mechanic, the computer showed no error code but their readings revealed erratic readings with the mass air sensor. They replaced it but told me that the sensor itself did not seem ot be malfunctioning. The defect caused a potential dangerous situation. Without power, there would be no way to get out of the way of traffic. I was fortunate that the road was quiet and i could coast from the inside lane to the side of the road without being hit by another vehicle.
