2012 Lincoln MKX Engine problems

Entering I-294 express ramp, vehicle was not accelerating beyond 40mph. then as I entered highway it shut down completely. I coasted to the right shoulder. The dash displayed a "low oil pressure" alert. So I did not attempt to restart the car. When I had it towed home, I checked the oil level and it was full. Nothing like this happened before. The vehicle is almost 12 years old with 167,000 miles. Had this happened in traffic on the expy, I could have been creamed by other cars or a truck. I am going to the dealer today to investigate but this seems like an anomaly where the engine shuts down because the computer thinks there is a catastrophic failure that is not really happening.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 lincoln mkx. The contact stated that the engine failed. While driving 40 mph, the engine stalled and the low oil pressure warning indicator illuminated. The contact was able to restart the engine to regain normal function, but the failure was experienced several times. The vehicle was taken to mayaguez ford called marginal mayaguez, puerto rico, 00681; phone 787-805-3673. The dealer performed a diagnostic, which located the failure at the engine purge valve. The dealer replaced the engine purge valve and the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 50,000. *Tt *as

While driving on a city street, vehicle did not respond to the accelator- no power to the vehicle and a "wrench" appeared on the dash board. Power train problem. Take vehicle immediately to your lincoln dealer. The car stopped and I was able to pull over. It seemed to be choking then stopped. Towed it to dealer - they ran diagnostic tests and found "nothing wrong with it". Two weeks later same thing happened. Fortunately I was on a city street again and able to move over. Had this happened n the freeway I am...

Stoped at a red light on a slight grade. Car shut down completely w/loss of steering & brakes. Drifted backward until I pushed the emergency brake. Local dealer ran dianostics, nothing found lincoln provided zero help in resoulving the problem.

Drivetrain warning light (wrench) illuminatedwhile driving with associated limp mode and rough running engine. Ford repair stated throttle body needed replacing , not covered under drivetrain warranty, and common item failure on mkx's. This is a customer satisfaction replacement item on previous years of the mkx but not for 2012. Obvious that the problem still exists. 65,000 Miles on vehicle and all maintenance completed at dealership.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 lincoln mkx. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle lost power and stalled. The wrench light illuminated. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road, restarted the vehicle, and resumed driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the throttle body failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 56,000.

I noticed a few days ago when I was in traffic my brakes didn't want to hold. I pressed really hard and only then did my car stopped. I took it to a mechanic and he checked it out and said my brakes looked great. Two days ago I was driving and my car just shut off and the engine light came on. I took it to the ford dealer to have it checked out. I was told it was a faulty value and that my brakes were fine. When I went to leave the dealer my car shut off in the middle of the highway and my brakes failed I was...

Vehicle power & computer failed (shut off) while driving at 40 mph in clear weather. *Tr
