Default Multiple error pop ups on dash, no power...

Last night while driving to my folks house, truck just shut down. Hill descent control, advancetrac control, and wrench light all lit up, with error messages; ZERO power, and super rough idle. I was doing about 60 when this happened, and was able to pull over. Shut the truck down, cleared all the errors, and started back up. Hill descent control & advancetrac errors returned, but cleared, and truck seemed to be fine. Made the rest of the 20 mile trip without incident. The drive back was totally different story. dashboard lit up like a dang christmas tree, and zero power every 1-2 minutes. Repeating the process of pulling over, shutting down and starting over. I was out in the sticks on a 2 line highway in the dark, or Id have parked and left it there. No CEL and errors would go away after restart.


Any clue as to what the heck is going on? Anyone else experienced this? I just turned 61000 miles. 2015 F150 3.5eco.

Exact same thing happened to me couple months ago, around the same mileage. Dealer replaced throttle body and now I'm good to go.

I searched around online after posting and found a few others have experienced similar issues. $200 at the dealer for the part, finished slapping it on about an hour ago. Test drive went well. Fingers crossed that was the issue. Sucks that the TSB for this was only extended until September 2017 with the dealer picking up the tab.

Mine has done this 3x in just over 2 yrs. No rhyme or reason. I just pull over shut it off and fire it back up and go. The last time it did this was about a month ago.
The first 2 happened when it was raining. I read somewhere on here that it might be moisture getting onto a sensor or something. The last time it was dry so that didn't fit the M.O.
It doesn't show any codes after it happens either.
Which TSB are you referring to ? I would like to let me dealer know.
Seems like a lot of people are having the same problem.

Ford was paying for the replacements until September of 2017, hopefully they will extend it again.

That's a bunch of crud right there. My 15 has been doing it for about 3 months and this is the 6th trip to the dealer to fix the problem. This is the first time they have told me throttle body so hopefully it will fix it finally. All at my expense of course for what a easy google search revealed is an obvious issue. Wonder if my 18 will be next!
