Why does my Ford Focus engine keep stalling out while idling?

I have a 2016 Ford Focus and recently, I've noticed that the engine will randomly stall while I'm stopped at a red light or in traffic. It starts back up fine, but it's becoming more frequent and I'm worried it will cause bigger problems. Any advice on what could be causing this issue?

This could be due to several reasons such as a faulty idle control valve, dirty fuel injectors, or a clogged air filter. I suggest taking your car to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic test to pinpoint the exact issue.

I had the same problem with my Ford Focus and it turned out to be a malfunctioning fuel pump. Get it checked out, as stalling while idling can be a safety hazard.

Check your spark plugs and ignition coils, as worn out or faulty ones can also cause stalling while idling. It's always better to get these things checked and fixed sooner rather than later.
