NHTSA complaint #11406374, filed 2021-04, 146,000 miles“2007 Ford EDGE looses power. Speedometer goes to 0. Exclamation mark, air bag and tool light comes on. Motor revs up to high RPM. I understand this is a sensor issue with this particular vehicle. And it is a very common happening with this vehicle. With the vehicle shutting down without any indication that it is about to happen. This happens at highway speeds as well as in town speeds. I think Ford should investigate this issue and issue a recall. Thank you”
