Description of the problem	On 10 nov 15 at 0900hrs i picked up my 2013 ford focus after the replacement of an ignition coil/spark plug and the reprogramming of my transmission control module (ford recall 15b22). At 0930hrs while driving north on hwy 295 at about 40 mph on a straight portion of the highway, all my warning lights turned on and i lost engine power. The vehicle also felt as if it shifted into neutral. I had to use emergency driving procedures to pull onto the shoulder. I attempted to restart the vehicle but the starter did not even attempt to turn over. I called for a wrecker and had the vehicle towed back to the dealership for corrective action. I have not experienced am engine or transmission failure like this in the past. I believe that it may be due to the reprogramming of the transmission control module. It should be noted that the ford focus in question is a canadian version, with 62000km/38000miles to date. I felt compelled to report this incident as it required me to use emergency driving techniques to bring the vehicle to a safe stop (although the brakes continued to function). Had i not been trained in those techniques the likelihood of a collision with another vehicle at high speeds would have been likely.
