Did you get a CLE light on when this happen? It may have been something as simple as a temporary vapor lock. Hard to say.

I have had same problem with my 2008 Ford Escape. Shut down on crossover btwn northbound and southbound 4-lane highway. Wouldn’t start. Couldn’t shift. Brakes/gas peddles locked. Started for tow truck driver 50min later. Please help, if you can. What is a cle light? Is that for the gas cap?
