Interesting, already had a recall on the FDM, now the FPCM!
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

It's on the news now, affects pretty much 13-up EcoBoost 3.5L V6 engines on a variety of models:

I looked at the FSM and the only control module I found seems to be somewhere behind the rear seat.

I recall a few members having this exact problem.  Vehicle running fine one second and dead the next. 

Wife has the full letter now.  I will scan and post when she gets home from work.  We should all be receiving letters in the mail mid-September and the campaign for replacement will start in November.

So park it and wait for the letter and subsequent dealer inspection  or roll the dice and continue driving it?  This issue doesn't seem to be widespread amongst this community or am I missing something?  I do not think I can get myself to park my SHO and just look at it.

I would just roll the dice on this one and just enjoy the SHO and even if you leave it parked until you receive the official letter in the mail it might not even start.  Z

Yikes. You might be correct. I checked my car on the Ford my owner website and was good. Mine was built 11/30/15 and was number 141 of the 16's built. Oh well anyone know what the fix is?

Mine failed a month ago and costed me $300 to have it replaced at the dealer, guess Ill contact Ford and see about a refund. Funny thing is the dealer said he had an MKS in the week prior to mine with the same failure. I wonder if they are coming out with a revised module.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the FPM on back order with NO ETA simular to the license plate lamp recall a while back ago....probably be wise to purchase the part now and get reimbursed later if it wasnt for the inspection and not knowing if you certainly qualify for the replacement,many overall parts are on special order and not available in stock.
