The powertrain warning light has come on twice and each time the car is turned off the light goes away. Ford techs hooked it to a computer to analyze it and it shows nothing. 2009 Ford Edge

Next time it happens, don’t turn the key off, just drive it into the dealers shop…

I will do that IF it’s during normal working hours and I can get it there. However it will probably happen again on a Sunday.

I agree, it’s up to them to find the problem with the drive train or the problem with the light. Disregarding the light because it didn’t show a problem before, is no defense disregarding it again if something does go wrong when dealer doesn’t want to honor the warranty. Keep at them.
