Description of the problem | While driving on the interstate at approximately 75 mph the wrench light came on while simultaneously the engine stopped. Just quiet, no acceleration. Was able to coast onto the left shoulder as there was too much traffic to cross 3 lanes to the right. Turned off car, while waiting for assistance (about 30-45 minutes), tried to start car and it started fine, no wrench light. Ford dealership could find nothing wrong when connected to the computer. Advanced auto could find nothing wrong when they ran their diagnostics test to it. Drove fine. Happened again 5 days later, i turned off car, waited 5 minutes and was able to start car again and no wrench light. I have read that this is very common in the 2016 models. |
