Engine wanting to stall at idle

Recent issue just started with my 22 2.0L ecoboost, 23,000 miles, sometimes during idle at a stop light or whatever, the engine with stumble and RPM's drop around 300 then it idles back up then it will do it again a few seconds later, then go away, engine at operating temp, start/stop in turned off.  Not throwing a code.  Thanks!

No codes, just studder then either go to normal idle rpm or die.  Turns out this is the purge valve.  I was able to find stuff on it with the Google.  Oddly enough, last month, I also got a letter from Ford about the purge valve issue and to bring the vehicle in and they will replace it at no charge.  It's under the 3/36 still anyways. 

 

UPDATE:  The letter I got from Ford for a defective purge valve is actually for my 2018 Focus, which has never showed any signs of an issue.  My Edge still wants to die at idle after fueling up, haven't had time to get to the dealer.

What codes are stored?

 

Does it happen all the time?

2013 v6 but sounds familiar. 

 

Hard start after fueling was the purge valve for me. Super simple $50 fix. 
 

Have an idle surge and dip every 3 minutes. Steady 600rpm - up to 750 - dip to 400 or lower. No codes. Has just stalled out a couple times at lights or coasting. 
 

The 3 minute timing just seems so odd.
