Default Computer Problems?

Hey everyone. We've had the car a month, but having some issues and wondering if you all had any insight. I know it could be a number of things, but wanted to know if the issues are due to electronic/computer malfunction since it seems highly unlikely that it all happened at same time.

2011 Fusion Sport (17,000 miles)

-Anti-theft: last week car would not start -locked & unlocked doors, pulled keys & then it started. Yesterday same thing, only wouldn't start - Came back 1/2 hour later and started. I know about the keys & keeping them separate/away from other transmitting devices so don't believe that is the source.

-CK Engine / Throttle Control Light / Blindspot & Crosstraffic Fault (Message): All lit up at same time while driving down road this morning. Normal driving @ 60mph, not trying to pass, accelerate, etc. No acceleration, assuming due to Throttle Control.

Ford forums great resource - have used them over the years with all of our Fords (Currently have 07 Exped EB also).
Greatly appreciate your help & feedback.

There have been some issues with the drive by wire systems, but generally work OK.
The fact that you have a CK Eng lite should help the dealership find and correct the problem since it's all covered by warranty.

They (Ford) have it right now. There is history with the same/similar problems with the car so hope we can get it resolved for good.
