So i got a check engine light on my 2016 (stock) Flex this morning. Right as i was making a u-turn my passenger front tire dropped off the pavement onto the shoulder. The engine stumbled and the light came on (I was going very slow and the drop off was minimal) I pulled codes using my MyCalibrator from my 2012 (tuned) flex. I got 1 DTC of P0327 with 2 pending DTCs of P0327 and P0332  the truck has 41,202 miles on it so its outside the 36,000 mile warranty not sure if this would be covered under the engine & drivetrain anyone have a photo of where the knock sensors are?
 
Its located right on TOP of the thermostat housing IIRC!
I think you might want to install a wire loom in order to prevent the knock sensor wire from rubbing next to the block....
Inspect the wiring for any such chafing due to heat exposure.  Z

To change the knock sensors or to tape up the wiring?  The knock sensors are seldom at fault.  The wiring does get chafed from time to time.  Are you sure it is not false knock or something similar induced by possibly some steering/suspension damage?
 
Here are a couple of Pics of the Knock Sensor wire with the loom around the wire! Follow SHOdded advice ^^^ and you should be Golden. Z  :)

Based on the Pic it looks like it.The thermostat housing is right below the connector! 
I would try removing the ground (negative) terminal from battery for @ least an hour.  Z
 
Well I checked the wires from what I could see without removing anything I couldn't find any chaffing. I cleared the codes and they stayed off for several months. They just came back again today. Would these codes be covered under the powertrain warranty?
