Losing all throttle response while driving

Was driving my 2016 Ford F150 3.5L EB Super Crew today. Felt a little bump and the truck began chiming and I lost all power.

I mean I had *zero* power - I pushed the gas pedal down and nothing at all happened. Engine was basically idling but did not respond to pressing gas pedal.

The warnings were:
"Service AdvanceTrac System"
"Hill Descent Control Fault"
"Hill Start Assist Not Available"

There was an orange wrench on the dash, the air bag light was on, the traction control light was on.

The truck was idling super rough the whole truck was shaking.

I shut the truck off - gave it a second and started it back up and they messages were gone.

This has happened to me three times now.

Anybody else seen anything like this before?

Happened to me a few months ago. Lost the throttle body. Easy fix for my mechanic.
