i was traveling about 35 mph when my car flashed a message "stop safely now" and the car had lost power to the wheels and i was now just coasting. i pulled the vehicle off to the side of the road. i was able to turn off the vehicle and get it started again. i was lucky that i was able to safely get my vehicle to a safe place had this been on a freeway i would have surely been in a serious accident.

POWER TRAIN

i was stopped at a light in a traffic jam. worried that i would run out electricity, i shut off the car. when i tried to proceed, the car would not move, and a warning of "safely stop now" illuminated on the dash. i tried "restarting" the car several times. the car would seem to "start," but would not move forward -- as if the gear would not engage. after several minutes, and with a policeman leaning into the window barking suggestions, the car started and proceeded. perhaps, when i stopped trying to start the car, the car wholly powered-off. essentially "power cycling" the car.

ENGINE

without earning, this electric vehicle's power systems die, even if fully charged. the car is left inoperable. a engine light "stop safely now" appears and the car can't move. very dangerous if it happens in moving traffic.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

purchased a 2014 ford focus electric in july of 2014. about 1 month and 1400 miles later i began to experience problems with the "stop safely now" message. vehicle will immediately loose power to accelerator while still maintaining power to braking and steering. the problem has occurred 4 times while driving since the 31st of july (today is 5 aug 2014). attempted to take to the dealer today. however, the only certified ev technician is on vacation until next week. ford website says vehicle is not eligible for current recalls. i will attempt to bring vehicle to service center next week.
