2020 California Special. 6800 Miles, first owner.

First check engine light was for front grill shutters not operating properly. That was addressed, fine.

The next day, while at a light, it started shuddering and surging forward. Then it stalled. Got an “intake runner manifold control valve” message on my Ford Pass.

Dealer diagnosed. Passed all tests and computer recommends returning to customer. However they can replicate the problem. Now it’s in the hands of Ford Engineering.

Service manager thinks that they will either replace the intake manifold, the ECU or both.

This after only 2 months of ownership.

Fun stuff. Hopefully this won’t be a recurring theme.

"front grill shutters," had to look that one up, Wonder why only that car has them. I read it's supposed to increase MPG.

The idea of that makes even less sense. Could have entertain an idea of coolant temp control, even that does not compute.
One Mustang trim package has front grill shutters?
Crazy, hope the problems get sorted out soon, good luck..
