FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Dec 08, 2009.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . brake system on 2006 ford hybrid escape. replaced brakes at reputable shop near home 11/17/09 as abs light was on and 55,000 miles on car. shop informed me abs light still on so they put car on computer and found it to be the sensor on the brake axle. they unfortunately could not help me as ford does not allow access to necessary components to fix system until car is 5 yrs.old and was told they tried to put a new static ring on and it might work. if light comes on again take to dealer. 2 wks later abs light on as well as red brake light so took car to willowbrook ford dealer. they informed me the part to replace is $4300 without labor. this seems criminal for a part to cost that much as the car is only a 2006. i haven't even finished paying for the car. they told me i should of gotten the extended warranty and i told them they should make a better product. i expect a new car to last longer than 3 yrs. as it stands today they are trying to disconnect the abs system but i am not sure of the safety of the car. if they cannot do that i will be forced to pay the price for this outrageous part. are there any other complaints about the safety of the 2006 ford escape hybrid? *tr.Mileage was 56000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Dec 05, 2009.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . we own a 2006 ford escape hybrid 4wd. it has approx. 56,000 miles on it. the abs system failed on it in dec. the ford dealership in our area came back with an estimate of $6000 for repair secondary to a failure in the hydraulic control unit computer which controls the abs system. the part itself is $4300. we contacted ford whose response was that we should have bought the extended warranty. the dealer then contacted ford directly and ford agreed to take $1000 off the part cost which brought our repair down to $5000. our non-ford mechanic was able to purchase a used part for $350, install it then take it to ford to reflash the computer components. ford came back to us after about a week and said they could not reflash the system because those components could only be programmed once on the initial build. we would be forced to purchase a new part from ford who then are also the only ones who possess the software to get the vehicles working again. i looked online and would be able to purchase the part for $2300 but could only have a ford dealer do the remainder of the work to get the computer system to work. not sure if any ford dealership would allow us to bring in our own part we purchased off the internet if we were to purchase the cheaper part. in addition, it turns out ford is requiring parts dealers to return the used part to ford after purchasing the new part. ford then remanufactures the part (which they got for free from the consumer) and resells it as a new part for $4300 to some other unsuspecting hybrid owner. since our car is undriveable without the repair, it feels like ford is grossly taking advantage of the circumstances in situations such as these to unfairly gouge their customers. part # 7m6z2c286b. *tr.Mileage was 56000 miles.

Ford Escape Hybrid 2006 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10318058

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 07, 2010.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i am the owner of a 2006 ford escape hybrid and have had at least four experiences of malfunctioning speed sensors. they have given me concern about the safety of the vehicle and caused me inconvenience and expenses for repair. the typical incident involves a malfunctioning of the abs and 4x4 systems, with warning lamps lighting up indicating that there is a danger of skidding and loss of vehicle control. in three instances i had the problem diagnosed and repaired by ford dealers, who reported: "found rear wheel speed sensor to be faulty" (jan. 08); "replaced the failed right rear wheel speed sensor" (sept. 08); "inspected the sensor at the right front wheel and found the tone ring on the axle cracked. needs new axle" (aug. 09). two of these were done on warranty; the third cost $344.95. all dealers have given assurances that even with warning lights indicating problems as described it was "safe" to continue driving the car until repairs can be made. on march 7 and 8, 2010, while on a trip away from home, the same symptoms occurred again. given earlier assurances by dealers, i continued on my trip ignoring as best as possible the warning lights, popping sounds of the 4x4, and occasional shuddering of the abs system. surprisingly, after some highway driving (perhaps 50 miles) the warning signals stopped lighting up and the car seemed to handle fairly normally. now, a few days later, the car continues to operate without signs of malfunction, but it remains unclear whether the problem "fixed itself" or the computer-controlled read-outs have ceased functioning, thereby disguising the possible persistence of the underlying problem. i have not had any accidents as a result of these problems, but it is extremely disconcerting to have to worry about what may be an inherently faulty design that may compromise the safety of this vehicle despite assurances to the contrary given by dealers. *tr .Mileage was 43450 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2010.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . i was driving approximately 40 miles per hour, approaching a red light and busy intersection. i applied brakes (via pedal) as usual, but had no braking power / corresponding slowdown. i had to jam my foot to the floor and cover the emergency brake in case i needed it, and thankfully i was the first car at the light so there was no accident. the rest of the drive, it took at least 5 times longer/more distance to slow the vehicle to a stop than normal and at the same moment i lost braking power, a chime sounded & both the abs and brake(s) light on the dash lit up; message center read "service brakes soon". i just had the veh in for its 40k mile service 2 days ago & it had nothing wrong with it--brakes were all listed as top condition. now i'm absolutely terrified to drive the vehicle, unsure when this condition will recur (the lights reset & and i checked today--the brakes are working again, for now.) when the condition occurs, braking is an odd slow pulsing, like a slowed down version of an emergency abs stop ("pumping the brakes" feeling.) i've never had brake problems until this incident. when i turned the car off and restarted it, the abs & brake lights cleared and, for now at least, the brakes *seem* to be working but i can't chance it. getting it towed for service. *tr.Mileage was 37100 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 28, 2011.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . while traveling home on an interstate at 70 mph the red brake light came on after a light breaking situation. i did the system check available on the vehicle and the brake fluid was shown as ok. the brake pads were replaced not long ago so i was confused. a short time later the yellow abs light came on. when i went to brake my foot went to the floorboard and the vehicle was not stopping. i swerved onto the shoulder of the interstate to avoid an accident. it took a great distance ( i would say more than 100 yards ) for the vehicle to stop. i was never so scared in my life. i drove home on side streets at 25 mph with my warning lights flashing and virtually no brakes. after taking the vehicle to a ford dealership i researched the break failure issue and to my amazement found numerous other such incidents. after five days in the repair shop and three failed attempts by the technician to bleed the break lines i was told that i needed a $4200 computer control unit. i believe this is a serious design flaw in the electrically controlled break system of the hybrid vehicle and no person should have to go through the terror of attempting to stop from 70 mph with the breaking system shut down. this is a timebomb waiting to go off in the form of a fatal accident..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 99000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Apr 04, 2011.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . the brakes fail on a regular basis while slowing down from speeds between 10 and 35 mph. it occurs as a sudden release of braking pressure while stepping on the brake pedal to slow down. at that time a momentary warning light comes on for several seconds and the system appears to go into a fail-safe mode that allows manual operation of the brakes. this causes a large increase in braking distance and i consider it very dangerous. this failure seems to be related to the hybrid braking system and may be common to other hybrid vehicles. after stopping the warning light goes away and the brakes will again function normally. the failure does not occur continuously but it does occur almost every day that it is driven. the car has been in a repair shop numerous times with many part replaced but the problem continues to evade our fleet mechanics. this is an inherent problem with this vehicle and commonly known where there are large fleets of hybrid vehicles. my co-worker drives the same type of escape hybrid and he has the same failure. please investigate with ford and/or toyota. a similar problem has been seen with toyota prius in out fleet. *tr.Mileage was 38000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2010.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . multiple continued instances of complete brake failure. since the initial occurrence, already documented on this site (odi id number : 10349431), it randomly recurred at least 10 times over the past 2 years, including 3 times in a single trip in june 2012 and two additional times in july 2012. the brake failures typically occurred during hot weather when running the air conditioner, but not always. every time we thought we'd "figured out" a pattern to the failures, the brakes would go out at a different time than they ever had before -- at a higher speed, or while slowing for a stop light going uphill versus when we were trying to slow to a stop at the base of a steep hill with a marina in front of us. we finally sold the car fearing for the safety of our family, others on the roadways, and our finances. no wonder ford quit making these vehicles... *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 37100 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on July 14, 2012.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE . my 2006 ford escape hybrid cut off the combustion engine while traveling down a country rd. was able to pull off with declining power in the electric engine. display read "pull over safely" and nothing else. i brought it in to both a ford dealership who referred me to a toyota dealership because they didn't have anyone who knew about hybrid cars. since the problem did not occur at the time i brought it in and there were no problems showing on a diagnostic test they could not do anything. the suv has done this numerous times since and sometimes shuts off both engines in the middle of the highway. i thought speed and hard driving were the problem which it tends to happen more so on 45min or greater drives but has been known to do this at 15mph in residential areas. very scary, especially on crowded high speed roads as you cannot "pull over safely" with neither motor running. if their excuse is its a safety feature it is not very safe. i contacted ford via e-mail and they were nice enough to refer me back to the original ford dealership and send the dealership the e-mail i had sent to their customer support in confidence stating i did not trust the dealership and they should investigate their practices (for previous reasons relating to other car issues). saw many posts in forums that this problem relates to the cooling pump for the electric motor. ordering a new coolant pump online as i will not go to the ford (as i saw a post eloquently put) "stealership". *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 70000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 25, 2013.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . part 1: i purchased this used vehicle from what is a well known dealership in my area of living on 3/21/13. as you can see from the date the first brake failure happened, it was 4 days after i drove the vehicle off the lot. the brake and abs lights illuminated on the dash on my way home from work. thankfully, besides being scared to death, i was ok. the dealership towed my vehicle and stated they "miraculously" (my sarcasm) had brakes when driving it from the tow truck into the shop. they had great difficulties figuring out what was wrong and had even talked with the ford company and came up with the hydraulics system being the issue which was then replaced by the dealership. at a later time with further occurrence, i was informed the modular had also at the first brake failure been replaced, although there is no proof of that on my service record (another issue). after replacing these items, the dealership continued to have difficulties trying to get the brake and abs lights from illuminating on the dash and apparently had to unhook some vacuum pump to correct issue. following this i was assured everything was fixed. second brake failure was on 5/26/13. thankfully,i was just coming to a stop at my residence when this occurred! again vehicle was towed. an error code was found and reset and assured everything was ok. this is also when i did some digging and requested the previous owners name. to my amazement, this had happened once to the previous owner.....funny, the dealership and ford were involved and stated it could have been a modular or a "fluke" and nothing was done at that time and the vehicle was traded shortly after. hmmm..i inherited a problem. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMCU96H66K.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Dec 19, 2013.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . the vehicle was and has been driving normally until standard braking situation of coming to a stoplight. as the brakes were applied the abs and brake light came on and all power assist to the brakes was gone. i had to crush the brake pedal to get any braking at all. luckily i'm strong enough to manually bring the vehicle to a stop. this was the first time (december 2013) since i've had the vehicle that this happened. it's now april 2014 and the same issue has returned (twice in a week). a very dangerous potential situation. however, after braking to a stop the vehicle can be turned off and back on to correct the situation (abs and brake light turn off) and the brakes return to normal. i purchased this vehicle at auction from a fleet of vehicles. the sticker did say brake problems, however, after driving it i found only normal braking and attributed the "brake problem" to worn brake pads etc. i can only say that the "brake problem" they mentioned on the sticker must have been the same situation i've run into - so the fleet personnel must have been experiencing the same thing. this situation seems to me to be a much deeper design flaw and after researching online and seeing so many other similar complaints - this obvious flaw should be exposed and corrected on a vehicle recall basis before there are fatalities. it seems to me only a matter of time...... *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 87100 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Jan 23, 2014.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . we noticed banging coming from the right rear wheel well. after investigating, we found a number of small rusted out holes into the trunk from just that wheel well. the banging was the shock mount and the shock absorber hitting the well. the rusted out area has grown. there is no other indication of significant rust on the undercarriage. we've been told that this is the result of a leak from the hybrid battery; others, via message boards and the like, have reported the same problem. we were afraid that the shock absorber would hit the wheel and cause an accident so we took it off the road. given we need the vehicle and don't want to sell an otherwise serviceable suv for scrap, we hope you can persuade ford to recall this model and fix this dangerous problem as soon as possible. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 100000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Aug 22, 2014.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . approximately 8-9 months ago i felt like the master cylinder was going out in my 2006 escape hybrid. i took it to a local shop that i trust a few days later and the mechanic drove it and thought it was ok so no repairs were preformed. however, at this time he did not perform any sort of a computer diagnostic test because he felt the brakes seemed ok. fast forward to approx. 8/17/14, i pulled into my garage and before i turned my car off both the led message board indicated an issue needed attention (can't recall exact wording) and the red brake warning light on the dash lit up indicating the brake unit needed service. i took the vehicle back to the same mechanic and he performed a computer diagnostic test. he got back to following: "brake system diagnostics code: c1471 high pressure accumulator volume consumption plausibility failure. recommend replacement of the master cylinder first and recheck system. if code returns the hydraulic control unit will need to be replaced." the cost to perform this work is nearly $8,900.00 and almost all of that charge is for replacing these two defective parts, not labor. the cost to replace the failing hydraulics exceeds the blue book value of the vehicle also. this vehicle has only 91,589 miles on it and the whole hydraulic system is failing. i checked out various internet boards and it looks like my problem is the same exact problem scores of others have experienced, and many of them right at the same approx. mileage interval. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 91589 miles.

FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 20, 2014.FORD ESCAPE HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE . i have owned this car since 2006 when i bought it new. after about four years the battery pack blew and had to be replaced. it would have cost $4000 but thankfully i had purchased the extended warranty and it was covered. on sept. 20, 2014 the car threw a rod and the engine was completely destroyed. the mechanic said it would cost $5000 to fix it with a rebuilt engine but that it wasn't worth it because the engines for these cars are notoriously unreliable and it would probably just fail again. it was recommended that we scrap the car. the entire lifecycle of this vehicle was only 8 years which is absolutely preposterous. cars should last longer..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 160000 miles.

my 95 ford exploere engine surges when turn my air conditioner on

Ihave a 1994 ford probe which has started to idle very low and stalls at times. It is a 4 cyl. w/ air and a 5 speed. any ideas? I replaced the fuel filter, air flow meter and added HEAT to gas tank to dry and clean fuel system. I think my pcv valv

should a standard transmission truck start when it is in gear without the clucth engaged?

should a 2005 standard transmission ford ranger start when in gear without the clutch engaged?

96 Ford F250 Emergency brake lever gets caught on the auto adjustment spring, causing brakes to be permanently engaged, also allowing the parking break lever to rub against the hub, which can cut through over time.

try pushing the pedals button closer to you. you must have the pedal adjustment button to the left of the radio, looks like a foot, that brings the pedals more inward towards the driver. hope it helped. or look carefully if a wire has corroded. it

i would check ur multi switch on ur stearing colum

on the pedal

whats the sound

Just bought an '06 E-350 van. Left d'ship got on highway and noticed shimmy when I got to 60....same problem????

that happened to me last night! If you rock the car back and for while shifting then it should release the safety lock!

why does it take turning off the veh. while pulling in on the shifter arm, them starting it again while still holding it inwards ever so slightly??
