2.7-liter EcoBoost Engine Stalls

well throttle body didn't fix it, back to square one. Only stalls when the engine has warmed up and so far, only when you come to a stop sign or light. I wonder if it is sending too much fuel once warm, hence why i only get about 8-9 mpg lately

Did you ever find a solution?

no not really although it hasn't done it in quite awhile. Fuel consumption was always high when it was doing it, constant short city driving. I'm finding the 10R80 is the culprit. Lock out the gears down to 4th or 5th around town, keep the rpm's around 2000 and it's golden.Also changed the battery which helped another problem it was having.

happens to me as well. I was told it could possibly be from the battery being down lower than 80 percent. I would have laughed in his face if he told me that, they told my wife 80 percent and they offered to switch it out for a mere 350 dollars
Yes this has happened to me three times since January. Dealer cannot replicate and offers no solutions. I even got the regional service manager involved to request a replacement vehicle. Denied. I am at a loss and feel very unsafe driving it. I feel defeated and at a loss with a defective vehicle.

I sold the vehicle long ago and won’t buy another Ford. Experiences the sad, ugly, dangerous underbelly of the business. Once is enough.

Similar issue with 2017 Eco Boost F-150 -> Looking for answers
I have a 2017 F-150 that stalled on me today, 2/10/2023 (and once before about 2 months ago).
Situation: Slowed down to about 10 MPH as car ahead turned off. Once cleared, almost immediately after pressing on the accelerator, the truck stalled. The wrench and a message like "Service Required" was displayed (can't remember exact wording). I was lucky enough to have enough momentum (and strength) to pull into same lot the car ahead did. Turned off vehicle, restarted, and everything seemed fine. As I pulled back out onto the road, the truck jerked and then wouldn't come out of first until I let off the gas a little, then shifted to second. Same thing, it wouldn't come out of 2nd until I let off the gas a little, and then finally made it to third when I pulled into the next lot about 1/4 mile away and shut down again. This time I pulled out the key and opened the door (in hopes it would reset more things this time). Started back up and was able to drive home without further issues. At home, I used my OBD II reader and found there were no codes recorded.
I have read numerous posts on this issue (or at least seemingly related) and there have been many different offerings on what it might be a cause/remedy, but none seem definitive. Ford seems to want to deny responsibility. Has anyone successfully fixed this issue?
