Sounds as if you have a fuel delivery issue, you will need to check the fuel pressure. But before you do that change the fuel filter if you have not done it in a while.

It's either the idle air control valve, or you have a vacuum leak.

Did you ever figure this out? I have a 2012 Flex with the same issue.
