FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Nov 13, 2001.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . after stopping at a light, i accelerated to approximately 30-35 mph when car stalled. all warning lights came on. car restarted, we took to the dealer. they advised us right away that ford is aware that these escapes have this type of problem- they just quit running for no reason. they checked it out and everything checked out ok. because i am now afraid to drive the car, as this is a major safety issue not knowing if car will stall unexpectedly going down a freeway or in the middle of a busy intersection, discussed returning car to dealer. they advise that ford will not do a recall at this time but are aware of the problems being reported. they have no solution to the problem as they can't find out why it happens on some escapes but not others. unless they buy the car back, we take a huge loss as it as depreciated in the 30 days we have owned it, plus our sales tax and licensing costs. from what we are told, ford has no intention of recalling. my question and complaint, is, if they know that the cars stall and they cant explain why, and therefore can't fix the problem, how can it be legal for them to leave us in this position where we have to fear for our lives every time we drive the car. i can't understand why they don't have to buy these cars back and compensate for the sales tax expense as well. how can they be allowed to leave these cars on the road, when we could be killed if the next time it stalls we are going 70 mph with a semi in back of us that hits us when the car stops in the middle of the freeway. or, we are starting to complete a turn when the car stops and the oncoming car can't stop in time. the dealer has told us we can complain to a toll free number at ford but basically they will do nothing for us. please help us.*ak.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMCU04122K.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on .FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK . when i test drove the 2002 ford escape on saturday, april 20, 2002, the brakes were spongy but i was told that new brakes have to "wear in" before they get solid. i bought the vehicle. the brakes seemed to get more spongy after we had driven it home, so i called northstar ford on monday, april 22, to have them check the brakes and correct a vibration on tuesday morning at 8:00. at that appointment they worked on correcting the vibration but they didn't do anything about the brakes. that afternoon when i drove the escape downtown duluth, when i stopped at a red light on a hill, i noticed that with moderate pressure i could push the brake pedal nearly to the floor. i made another appointment for thursday, april 25, to have them wash off some tire dressing that had spattered on the vehicle. when i asked them to check the brakes, they said the brakes were normal and they wouldn't do anything about the brakes. so i gave them a paper to sign that states "the brakes on our ford escape are functioning normally even though they are very 'spongy.' furthermore, when moderate pressure is applied to the brake pedal, the pedal goes nearly to the floor. this type of brake response is not considered a safety hazard. " the service people at northstar told me the brakes were normal, but they wouldn't sign the paper. i'm really worried that if i ever have to make a panic stop the brakes are going to fail. i don't trust a brake pedal that goes nearly to the floor. when it became clear that they were not going to do anything about the brakes, i tried to get my trade in back and leave the escape at the dealership, but they wouldn't let me out of the contract. please check into this to see if these brakes are indeed normal.*jb.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMYU04132K.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on .FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE . my escape was still new when i first experienced a total stall. i was on a downhill exit ramp from the interstate making a left hand turn onto a very busy one way street through an even busier intersection. i coasted at about 30-35 mph down to make my turn and realized that i had no steering or power at all. i had to fight to make the left turn and get to the curb. the experience left me shaking in shock and fear for quite some time. i had no trouble restarting it after i regained my composure. i took it to the initial point of sale and was told they had not heard of any problems. they "could not duplicate the problem". i have had three additional stalls, a different dealer replaced throttle, air intake. another stall. since purchasing this vehicle the cd player has been worked on twice (the dash had to be replaced because the service tech scratched it considerably), the passenger front window rolls up out of the track and the passenger front door would not unlock. the door had to be taken apart to fix the lock assembly consequently the interior door was replaced because it had to be torn off to get to the lock. cruise control works intermittently, the rear wiper doesn't work correctly, the transmission shifts hard, the front end makes noises when turned, not to mention a rattle in the back that will drive you crazy and a musty smell. as if this weren't enough, this morning it began running rough, backfired and the engine light came on and stayed on. i made it home, thankfully and had it towed to the dealer...again i am without my car! my husband works for ford in louisville, ky and we are trying to be loyal, but this is too much! we have had trouble with different cars in the past, but i am afraid of this vehicle. i have a 16 yr. old son about to get his license. it has been hard for me as an experienced driver to handle these situations, but i am terrified that it could happen to him. dt.0 person(s) were injured.

(*i researched this site to check for any problems with my vehicle, prior to my purchase but found no reports posted for recalls. today while at the site, i noticed an area called defect investigations. that was quite informative. i never saw this section prior to my purchase. i consider myself a smart person, but i missed it.) the dealership must have been aware of these type of problems at the time of the sale, but did not bring them to my attention or fill me in. even today, the service manager did not inform me of any problems with stalling in 2002 ford escapes. i do not look forward to continuing to expose myself nor my family to a safety hazard every time we get into our vehicle. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Escape 2002 problem was reported in RALEIGH, NC.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on July 08, 2003.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES:TREAD/BELT . my 2002 ford escape's tire (manufacturer continential tires) had seperated and had caused 2 other tires to wear improperly. though all recommended maintenance was performed and documenation was provided to the dealership, ford of vicksburg, i was told that "it wasn't ford's problem or responsibility". i then contacted continential tires, who advised to take the vehicle to sears, 40 miles away from the town i lived in. after taking the vehicle to sears and inspected, continential tire advised sears "they would pay for half of the seperated tire and that was it." i then spoke with the senior representative, carrie, of the tire manufacturer on the phone who advised that "the situation was ford's responsibility because they have a bumper to bumper warranty." i purchased my vehicle (new), december 2001. i conducted the recommended service as advised. i had approximately 22,000 miles in july, 2003 when the problem was discovered, which was shortly after i had an alignment performed at a ford dealership in louisiana. i did nothing to cause the problem that occured and was given "the business" of "it's not my responsibility", so it became my problem on a vehicle "supposedly" under warranty. i can't believe the run around i received from ford as well as continential tire regarding something that i had not caused or had any control of, after having the recommended service performed on my brand new vehicle. i will never own another ford vehicle and will ensure the vehicle does not have tires manufactured by continential..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMYU03172K.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Mar 01, 2004.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i bought a new 2002 ford escape xlt 4x4. 4 months after receiving it from the factory, it lost power and died suddenly while driving. i put the car in park and restarted it. i took the car to a ford dealership and they "reprogrammed and reset the relay switch" saying that would correct the problem. then last week, i was travelling 30 mph on a busy road when the exact same thing occurred. the engine stopped and i lost all power, including power steering. this was very dangerous as i was going around a curve and nearly went into the oncoming lanes and i was in the middle of the road just around a curve, where a car could come around the corner and not be able to stop in time before hitting me. luckily i was able to coast for a few feet and then restart the car again. i returned to the same ford dealership again and they "reprogrammed the computer again" i have had new cars before and have never had this happen or heard of this happening. i do not feel it is safe to have a car's engine just stop while driving at 30 mph on a road. i feel there is something defective with the computer that came with the vehicle and the computer needs to be recalled.*ak.0 person(s) were injured.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Feb 18, 2004.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . intermittent stalling problem occurs with my 2002 ford escape (v-6 engine) at speeds between 30-35 mph and always when i am going down hill and in a decelerating situation. i have a 9 mile commute on a hilly, curvy 2 lane road and during the stall i lose all power steering and braking. i have had some very close calls on curves where i could easily have lost control and gone over an embankment or hit an oncoming car. i have actually learned to become a defensive driver mechanically by keeping my eye on the rpm gauge when i decelerate because i've noticed that the rpm's sometimes drop erratically when the car is about to stall and by giving it a little gas i can avoid the stall. the car has been back to the dealer 3 or 4 times and all tsb fixes have been performed, yet the car has stalled at least 3 more times since the last fix. the dealer wanted to put a flight recorder on to help diagnose the problem, but wanted me to put a $500 deposit on the device!! why isn't ford taking this problem more seriously? from the numerous complaints i have read on this site, it's obvious that a very serious problem still exists with this car. *jb.Ford Escape 2002 problem was reported in GREAT FALLS, VA.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on June 13, 2003.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DRUM:SHOES/LININGS . i purchased a 2002 ford escape in june of 2003. i noticed, driving home from the dealership, excessive noise coming from the rear brakes. my initial request for the dealer to look into this noise was met with a reply that the brakes were inspected before the vehicle was put on the lot and checked out fine. the purchase, however, was a couple months after they had done their inspection. the noise continued and gradually grew worse and a couple weeks later they agreed the brakes should be inspected again. outside of excessive brake dust build up, they indicated the brakes were fine. the noise continued and i again brought the vehicle back in. at this point, the dealership indicated there appeared to be several areas of rough edges and they indicated all brake surfaces had been sanded to remove these imperfections. this process worked for no more than 48 hours before the noice returned, but even louder. i have been dealing with this ever since and it has grown increasingly frustrating, as teh dealership subsequently advised me of the bulletin posted regarding excessive brake dust. i was told by the dealership that a solution was to be in place by q4 2003 or q1 2004. i continue to be told there is no remedy yet and i am concerned that this loud annoyance could become a problem with brake function. i drive quite a bit for my work and plan to pull a pop-up camper for a 2-week vacation this summer and i have no interest in putting myself, my family or any one else in jeopardy should there be a more significant undelying problem. *ak.Mileage was 20500 miles.

Ford Escape 2002 Seat Belts Front Review #10121752

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Apr 17, 2005.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SEAT BELTS:FRONT . i have a 2002 ford escape xlt with appoxamately 48000 miles on it. i feel that i need to bring to someones attention what i have learn at my local ford authorized sevice facility (putnam lincoln-mercury) about the pretensioners. i must note that the vehicle had recently hit in the rear bumper causing very minimal damage and not causing the airbags or pretensioners to go off. however, shortly thereafter, i was on a 400 mile trip and the airbag light began to blink on and off, flickering often times. i took the car to the dealershiip upon my return home for diagnosis. the dealership said that it is due to bad pretensioners, a part of the seatbelt, for both front seats and also the harness(s) need replacement as well. the technician said this is a very commen problem and that ford even has a kit for it. the price that was quoted to properly repair the problem was $460 plus tax. that is a considerable amount of money for anyone, especially since its such a new car. i am a concerned that not repairing it could be bad if the car is ever involved in a head on collision. i am also concerned that the technician tells me this is a common problem and ford hasn't issued a recall. i am told that this maybe due to most escapes are still under warrenty and hasn't come to light yet as most people haven't had to pay for it. so far there has been no one hurt. the only negative consequence is that i will be about $500 poorer after getting it repaired. the repair was quoted $460 plus tax (9.38%). the repair is supposed to consist of 2 kits, drivers and passengers side pretensioner kits. i was also told that it may need new seat belt assemblies, not included in the quote, but they may not be nessicary. the technician also said that the mild rear impact had no effect on these going bad..Mileage was 48000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on May 12, 2005.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . just after the warranty period on my 2002 ford escape expired, i started having trouble with the transmission, specifically, the transmission would not engage in reverse without revving the engine and having the gears jump into place, causing the vehicle to lurch backwards. when i contacted my local ford dealership where i had purchased the suv, i expressed to them my displeasure in having transmission trouble at only 35,000+ miles and was informed that it was not unusual to need a new transmission at that odometer reading, and, indeed, they had replaced transmissions as early as 12,000 miles. i contacted my regional ford corporate headquarters about the problem without any success. on thursday, may 12, while traveling 55 miles per hour on the highway, the transmission failed, with the car sounding like i was revving the engine in neutral, and i was losing power quickly. i had to get off the road quickly and was unable to engage the transmission in any gear. after having the car towed to a transmission facility in indianapolis, i was told that the problem did not originate in the transmission, but was the result of a ground circuit problem. ford constructed the car with the ground running through the transmission, which means that every time the car is started the high voltage running through the transmission melts the gears together. additionally, the transmission was leaking onto the front suspension, which meant the ball joints needed to be replaced as well. the transmission company rebuilt the transmission, replaced the ball joints, and added an additional ground so that the problem would not happen again, which resulted in a total cost of $3655..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 87000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on June 03, 2005.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . the vehicle was being driven at roughly 35 miles per hour when the tachometer suddenly surged and the vehicle began to loose speed. the transmission had obviously failed to engage. putting the transmission into 2nd gear allowed the transmission to re-engage and the vehcile began to surge forward. an attempt was made to drive the vehicle to a dealership about 7 or 8 miles away. the transmission continued to to engage and disengage for the next several miles. finally, it disengaged one last time and did not engage again. since it was on a main street, the vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road of a side street. the vehicle was towed to kreiger ford in columbus ohio. this took place a friday. the dealership was informed that a complaint was made about the transmission slipping and then thudding into gear on 1st to 2nd gear shifts on a service call prior to the experation of the warranty. at that time the dealership assured the owner that there was nothing wrong with the transmission. on this incident, not only did the car have to be towed in, but the dealership was also informed that the motor on the rear window wiper had failed and the cd player would no longer eject the cds. on monday the dealership called to inform the owner that the transmission had totally failed and would have to be replaced at a cost of $3500. within an hour the dealership called back and said the ford was willing to put a rebuilt transmission into the vehicle, repair the wiper motor, do the 60,000 mile maintnenace, extend the drivetrain warranty to 100,000 miles, and repair the cd player for $1500. this is preposterous. no transmission should fail at 61,000 miles. and after reading the incidents reported here, it is becoming apparent that there is a problem with the transmission on the escape. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 61000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Aug 24, 2005.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM) . my 2002 ford escape with 52000 miles on it was great until last week when it stalled in the middle of a busy road with no shoulder late at night. i had to have it towed to the dealer where they told me that i needed a new battery because it was leaking acid (huh?) and that they would kindly put in the two recall parts one of which might be causing the problem (pcm i believe). the strange thing was about two hours after i had stalled i could start the car again fine but i figured they would still want to see it since it could be a dangerous situation. however, they did not find anything wrong with the car and sent me on my way. then last night my car wouldn't start...sounds were very similar to the time before only this time i wasn't driving i was in a parking garage. so i gave up and called a friend and decided to have it towed in th emorning when the dealer was open. only in the morning my car started fine again. i drove to the dealer anyway though because this was not very safe and figured they would want to look it over. problem. they said they can't do anything unless the problem is actually occuring so i would have to wait until it happens again. this didn't sit well with me so i called ford and they said the same thing. then i went online and did a search and it seems i am not the only one with this problem but no one seems to have an answer. i am nervous because i sometime drive on busy highways and if it stalls i might end up in a crash but ford didn't seem to care about this scenario. i am at a loss and want a better answer then wait until it happens again but i thought i should file a complaint in case others are having the same problem and to warn other drivers about following too close to a ford escape. .Mileage was 52400 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Nov 09, 2005.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . wife parked vehicle on steep uphill driveway. placed in park and turned ignition off. exited drivers side and walked behind vehicle to passenger side continuing to mailbox. while at mailbox observed vehicle abruptly roll backward crossing the path where she had just walked behind the vehicle, across street and over curb hitting tree. neighbor in their front yard also observed this. vehicle sustained significant damage. called ford corp offices to ask for review of this by their safety engineers. a cursory review by the dealer indicated no obvious transmission linkage or other adjustment problem. ford refuses any further review and shows little interest in finding any potential safety issue. i see similar reports of this in numbers 10031648, 568244, 10073682 and 10026175. there are also many reports of loss of control in other scenarios such as 10073741, 10087902, 10091048, 10092635 and 10108659. did not review complaints on similar models such as mazda tribute nor other year escapes which may have similar issues. i find it hard to believe that ford engineered the car to back down a hill, while unoccupied, in park, with the ignition off. but apparently they consider this normal and of no consequence. unfortunately, someone will have to be hurt and the economics turn against ford before they will get involved. reminds me of their safety issues with ford crown victoria's that continue to explode in flames when hit from the rear. *jb.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 24545 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Mar 18, 2006.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CABLES . 1) on saturday 18 at approximately 2:00 pm, my wife, linda, was driving approximately 50 miles west of broadus, mt when she passed another vehicle. 2) after passing the vehicle, her vehicle speed would not return to normal driving speed. instead, it stuck at nearly 80 mph. numerous attempts to release the speed, even applying maximum braking pressure, had no effect. linda turned off the ignition and coasted to a stop at the side of the road after negotiating a curve that could easily have caused a roll-over. linda tried restarting the motor, but it was still racing, and the tachometer reached 5000 rpms. 3) fortunately, another motorist who was familiar with automobiles, stopped to give assistance. he disconnected the cruise control. this allowed the motor to return to normal speed, and linda was able to continue and complete her trip home. the assisting motorist did indicate that the cable to the cruise control seemed to be loose. upon checking various web-sites,including the nhtsa site, i found that a recall had been issued in 2004 for this very problem (nhtsa campaign id number : 04v574000). i called the ford motor company recall information site (1-866-436-7332) but was told that because of where my escape was manufactured, it did not qualify for free repair. as of now my vehicles cruise remains disabled. i think this is a design flaw not a manufacturing problem based on place of manufacture. therefore, i believe ford should cover the cost of repair. *nm.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 91723 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Apr 18, 2006.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION . i own a 2002 ford escape xlt which i purchased new in 2001. last june, i did not use the vehicle for several days during which time it rained. when i went to start the engine, it ran sluggishly and shuddered. after a few moments, the engine light came on and the truck began emitting smoke. i turned the engine off, called my local dealer, varney ford, and had the vehicle towed there. i was told that the #3 "spark plug coil" (ignition coil) had burned out. i was told that moisture had entered the coil. no explanation for how that was happening was given. cost $180 to repair. yesterday, after several days of rain, i went to once again start my truck. it exactly repeated the previous incident. this time however, i drove the truck to the dealer...it could not travel more than 30 miles an hour. i was told that this time coils number 4 and 6 had failed. cost this time $325. once again i was told moisture had somehow gotten into the coil system. so in other words, i own a truck that cannot sit idle for even a day in rainy or damp weather without a coil burning out. from what i gather from reading the travails of other escape owners is that this is not an uncommon problem. ford says "there must be a pin hole somewhere that they will never be able to fix". while this wouldn't present a problem if i elected to live in a desert environment, it will continue to be an expense and render the truck useless in inclement weather. thank you. heidi robbins. *nm.Mileage was 36000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Sept 24, 2008.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE . a ford recall notice (#07s51) had been mailed informing me of a recall to our 2002 escape . the recall, as the letter states, had to do with dislodged wire seals that could effect the abs module. the recall notice went on to state that if left unfixed, the abs module could overheat due to the recall part and cause, in some cases, the car to catch on fire even when off. this description fit our car's problem, since our car's abs light and brake light was on unexplainable. logically, we took our car to the dealership to have the repair done on the car. after having the repair done, we checked the car and the abs light and the brake light were still on. i confronted the service manager who had administered the repair and he assured me that they had repaired the problem to the extent that ford had allowed them. he had told me that all he had done was change was a connector and nothing else. they had not fixed the problem; their report ended with telling me that the abs light and parking light were still on and a diagnostics was still needed. the mechanics did not only leave the problem unfixed, but were unwilling to admit that the problem was from the recall part. incidentally, three days later after the mechanics had worked on my car, the ford escape caught fire while parked on the corner of cenher drive in chula vista ca. fortunately, my spouse was not inside the car. the fireman were called to the scene in order to put out the fire and a police report was made. the fire left my car a total loss. i contacted ford costumer service of the incident and they informed me it would take 10 business days to answer my request. *tr.Vehicle was on fire. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 57350 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Oct 19, 2008.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE . there was a recall on 2002 ford escape last year(2007) on the abs unit. campaign number 07v156000. my problem is that one dealership turned in the recall as being completed on 4/24/07. they stated they put grease on the abs module. on 10/19/2008 i was driving home and the module caught on fire. the original dealership that supposedly did the recall is now no longer in business. so i called the ford motor company and was told that i would have to have the vehicle inspected by a ford service dept and if they determined the cause to be a defective module then it would be covered. so i took my car to another dealership and they told me that it was definitely a defect in the module. so they called ford motor company to verify the claim and then ford turns it down. the reason was that it had been more than 12 months since recall was done. they said that parts and labor are covered for only 12 months. but i have the receipt that shows all the first dealership done was inspect and apply grease. no parts were replaced. if they had actually replaced the module then i could understand. the recall came out after the car was already 5 years old. so the recall didn't state anything about the age of the part and i don't see how grease could fix a 5 year old part. even so if all they replaced was grease then how does the 5 year old part fall under a 12 month part and labor warranty? i think the part should be replaced since it has been diagnosed as defective. i would gladly pay for the grease since it is over 12 months old.( that's they only part they replaced) what do i do now? ford admitted the problem when they issued the recall, and now they do not want to fix it because of some grease (band-aide) they put on it? *tr.Vehicle was on fire. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 113987 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2008.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . i had previously brought my 2002 ford escape in for safety recall nhtsa action number pe06048, which was issued to address problems with electrical wiring connectors to the abs electronic control module. they inspected the abs module connection and applied dielectric grease. approximately 7,000 miles and 15 months after bringing in my car for the safety recall, the electrical connectors of the abs module were completely corroded, shorted out, and required immediate replacement. ford was unwilling to address the problem because 12 months had passed since bringing my car in to them. i wanted to express my concern that the actions taken (dielectric grease application only) when i brought my car in for the safety recall were insufficient or at best a short-term solution to this electrical safety problem. i have the old parts and pictures to show the severity of the corroded and shorted connections in both the abs brake module and the abs module connector that were taken from my automobile. *tr.Mileage was 45000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Feb 04, 2010.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . 2002 ford escape parked in driveway. last driven 5 hours earlier. the alarm sounded alerting my husband inside. he looked out of the window and saw smoke rolling from under the hood of the vehicle. he ran out with fire extinguisher and put out the flames. hopefully, this immediate detection of the fire limited the amount of damage. we were more fortunate than several other complainants. the abs module appears to be where damage was sustained. this is a recall for several 2002 escapes beginning in 2007, but when checking online with ford, my vin number states that there are no recalls on this particular vehicle. i didn't receive a recall notice from ford, and have on other occasions for this vehicle.i investigated several complains previously filed involving 2002 escapes, and they are hauntingly the same scenario. also, the vin numbers on several of these are very similar to mine. obviously, they have missed several of these dangerous components, or the website is incorrect. i was unable to phone ford, as it is a weekend and will first thing monday morning. my ecu on this vehicle was replaced at a ford dealership in cottage grove, or in november of 2008. i wrongly assumed that when the abs light was illuminated on the dash that there wasn't any problem since no mention of it was made by the dealer. i believe ford must correct this situation financially and make sure that all 2002 escapes are included in the recall. many complains i viewed were recent, so i conclude that the dangerous situation is not remedied. *tw *tr.Vehicle was on fire.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Feb 04, 2010.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . 2002 ford escape parked in driveway. last driven 5 hours earlier. the alarm sounded alerting my husband inside. he looked out of the window and saw smoke rolling from under the hood of the vehicle. he ran out with fire extinguisher and put out the flames. hopefully, this immediate detection of the fire limited the amount of damage. we were more fortunate than several other complaints. the abs module appears to be where damage was sustained. this is a recall for several 2002 escapes beginning in 2007, but when checking online with ford, my vin number states that there are no recalls on this particular vehicle. i didn't receive a recall notice from ford, and have on other occasions for this vehicle. i investigated several complaints previously filed involving 2002 escapes, and they are hauntingly the same scenario. also, the vin numbers on several of these are very similar to mine. obviously, they have missed several of these dangerous components, or the website is incorrect. i was unable to phone ford, as it is a weekend and will first thing monday morning. my ecu on this vehicle was replaced and programmed at a ford dealership in cottage grove, or in november of 2009. it was returned to me with the abs light still illuminated. the dealer made no mention to the light and i wrongly assumed that it wasn't a problem. i believe ford must correct this situation financially and make sure that all 2002 escapes are included in the recall. many complaints i viewed were recent, so i conclude that the dangerous situation is not remedied. *tw *tr.Vehicle was on fire.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Oct 04, 2012.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with POWER TRAIN . a couple of friends and i where on our way to la when we stopped for gas. filled up the tank and then started the car, which started perfectly fine, i then put the car into drive and when i pushed the accelerator the car simply revved the engine and did not move. the drive gear was not engaging but second worked fine. first gear did engage also but it felt it was slammed into place not smoothly engaging. had a near by mechanic look at it and he said that the transmission was giving out and that it would need to be replaced. i had the car towed to a dealership where i was told the clutch had blown out and taken the rest of the transmission with it and it all had to be replaced. it was a $3500 repair that i now wish i had done more research on because this seems to be a common issue. the car only had 54000 miles but it was 10 years old and there were no signs that the transmission was going out. the new transmission does come with a 3 year, unlimited mile warranty which is why i went with that instead of a rebuild which would have been a bit cheaper. after learning about all the problems this transmission has, i will be looking for a new car in the coming years. i like fords but this really making think about getting a new car from some one else. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 54000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on July 30, 2012.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STEERING . i was driving my 2002 ford escape and coming to a stop at an intersection when i heard a loud popping sound. after i stopped, i released the brake and rolled forward a few feet before re-applying the brakes and the sound repeated. i was able to drive it across the highway to a ford dealership for repairs. upon inspection the following morning it was determined that the subframe assembly had rusted out completely on the passenger side and had caused the lower control arm to become loose thus bending it and making it unusable. i am thankful that this happened at a very slow speed and fear that if other folks have this happen at highway speed it could be a very bad outcome ! this allowed my passenger side tire to pull outward hence pulling the control arm loose. it was a very expensive fix and the warranty i had purchased at the time of buying the vehicle was no avail. i contacted ford and was told that if there is no recall then there is no problem !! sorry but it was a very expensive fix and i believe ford should make good on this. how many injuries are required before someone takes notice ?? the repair bill was $ 1160.96. i had only owned the vehicle for 7 months at that time. it still has many payments to be made before it is paid off. it would appear that the air conditioning drain runs down this area causing it perhaps ? just an observation from a running vehicle identical to mine. any help would be appreciated on this matter and hopefully it gets resolved before any fatalities happen if they haven't already !! thank you ! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 154131 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Jan 16, 2012.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . when i first start my vehicle and begin driving it, unless i reach 20 mph before needing to brake, the brakes make a grinding noise and at first the pedal resists, then it gives way in, causing the brake to need to pressed down completely before the vehicle will come to a stop. once i reach the 20 mph or so, the abs light comes on, and after that, the brakes work fine. i took it to my ford dealership, they reportedly did not find a problem with the brakes, but performed a recall on only the abs light itself. this did nothing for the grinding resistance and failure of the brake pedal upon initially needing to stop, and still the abs light pops on once i reach 20-25 mph. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 125000 miles.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Jan 11, 2013.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with AIR BAGS . i have had my 2002 ford escape since june 2002. i bought it brand new and i have never had any problems with my airbags before and have never been in any accidents that would cause the airbags to deploy. all of a sudden in early january 2013, i started to notice my check airbag light on my dashboard illuminate. i thought this was odd since it had never done so before and i had never been in any accidents so i didn't really think anything of it and thought the light would just go off. the light continued to go on and so i finally brought it to the dealership on february 15, 2003. the dealership performed a diagnostic test on the airbag system only to find out that both of the pre-tensioner connectors that clip to the wire harness that makes the airbag system work had high resistance and needed to be replaced. without a fix, the airbag system no longer worked. they claimed that over time with the wear and tear of the vehicle, this will happen and the clips will no longer clip as they said. i find that hard to believe that a major safety feature of a vehicle such as airbags would all of a sudden stop working creating a potentially hazardous situation if there was an accident and the airbags did not deploy. i just wanted to share my story with you in case there have been other similar situations with this make and model of vehicle that might warrant a model recall in the future. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Escape 2002 problem was reported in STRATFORD, CT.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on July 04, 2013.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with CHILD SEAT . concern that only one connector strap locks on graco affx booster seat after connector clips are attached to latch brackets. other one does not lock in so seat can be pulled out on one side. called graco a bit ago and they said this is "normal" and not a design flaw. however, instructions suggest pulling on straps will hold seat in tight until release button is pushed. i am reading similar complaints in on-line reviews as well as others who say this is not a problem....which sounds like it is a problem!. bottom line: with one side of this seat not locking tight like the other side and able to slide loose from flush against the back of the vehicle seat, is this booster seat safe for my child to use, i.e., does it retain all its approved crash safety features whether the seat is locked in tight (as some users appear to be able to do) or slides loose on one side with slight pulling, such as may occur in the event of an impact?? note: couldn't find description of booster in dropdown list further on. is graco affix booster, model 1839168 (related vehicle information: model year=2002, make=ford, model=escape). *tr.Ford Escape 2002 problem was reported in YPSILANTI, MI.

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Nov 03, 2013.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VISIBILITY/WIPER . the rear liftgate glass support broke while opening the rear window. i was able to quickly grab the rear window before it could break. i would note that the falling rear windshield can strike the operator and/or bystander and could cause significant injuries that could include bruises to the head, neck or back, and possibly cuts to the face, arm or hand. i took my ford escape to my local ford dealer (friendly ford of monroe, mi) to have this issue repaired. i mentioned to the service manager that explorers and mountaineers had been recalled for this same exact defect and he told me to save my receipt in case my vehicle is recalled in the future. the repair to my vehicle cost $236.00 at the dealer. i noted that on september 9, 2004, ford notified the owners that it will recall approximately 955,732 vehicles, specifically 2002 and 2003 ford explorer and mercury mountaineer vehicles to replace the liftgate glass strut brackets and/or hinges. i'm sure these hinges were also used on 2002 ford escapes. before buying the above listed ford escape, i test drove several other escapes. on one of the escapes that i test drove, i opened up the rear liftgate glass and noticed that one hinge was broken and that the glass was hanging from just one hinge. i notified the dealer of this problem and told him that i would not be buying this vehicle. my niece also owns a 2003 ford escape and her hinge became rusted out and had to be replaced. see "nhtsa recall" 04v442000 for details. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 182000 miles.

(tread was good before). i called ford as soon as i was able & reported the incident. the rep told me that in order for a repair the vehicle had to be towed to a ford dealer & to keep the tow bill as they would cover it. right now the suv is at the dealer. it has been 2 days since they've had it & i've heard nothing. i am getting very impatient. because it's a recall i have a hunch they put it on the back burner. this vehicle is her only way to school & work. i asked about a loaner & they explained that because of the huge volume of recalls, a loaner would be difficult to come by. what has happened to customer service? i am expecting not only the vehicle to be fixed but i feel we should be compensated for the 1 tire - maybe 2 depending on the condition of the other side. i don't need a set of new ones - just something to pass inspection. if anyone has experienced the same issues please post something back. thank you !

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on Apr 24, 2014.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STRUCTURE: FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS . while driving her 2002 ford escape to work my daughter noticed the steering was not right. in order for her to keep driving straight she had to turn the steering wheel. she went over a pair of rough railroad tracks & lost control of the vehicle. her front passenger tire control bar had completely separated from the frame. it was rusted through. luckily she was driving in a 30mph zone & there were no other cars around. thankfully she was not hurt but quite shaken up. we were unaware of a vehicle recall on this model until a friend of hers recalled seeing an article in the news about control bars rusting through causing steering problems. her front tire was completely bald after this incident. (tread was good before). i called ford as soon as i was able & reported the incident. the rep told me that in order for a repair the vehicle had to be towed to a ford dealer & to keep the tow bill as they would cover it. right now the suv is at the dealer. it has been 2 days since they've had it & i've heard nothing. i am getting very impatient. because it's a recall i have a hunch they put it on the back burner. this vehicle is her only way to school & work. i asked about a loaner & they explained that because of the huge volume of recalls, a loaner would be difficult to come by. what has happened to customer service? i am expecting not only the vehicle to be fixed but i feel we should be compensated for the 1 tire - maybe 2 depending on the condition of the other side. i don't need a set of new ones - just something to pass inspection. if anyone has experienced the same issues please post something back. thank you !

FORD ESCAPE 2002 car safety problem was reported on May 14, 2014.FORD ESCAPE 2002, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SUSPENSION . car was making creaking sounds. going around a corner the car basically had no steering or control. got car to ford dealership and based on taking photo of the car i was told that ford decided to put a cross brace on as opposed to replacing sub frame.i told dealership i did not agree with decision that subframe should be replaced car was returned to me with cross brace installed.aprox 4 weeks later car was undriveable. contacted ford told me to tow car back to dealership. after inspection of vechicle was told now that sub- frame was broken dealership contacted ford and was told that their request to replace sub frame was denied. the sub frame holds engine,trans, all steering and brake components. this is a very dangerous. my family could have been killed. i was told by fordsupv that because they put on brace instead of making the correct repair that was actually part of sub frame recall they would not replace sub frame. this is how ford treats their customers and puts them in harms way. if you look at the history of ford vechicles ford windstar ford escape etc. you will see they are using defective steel on under body components causing excessive rust resulting in critical component failures. in my 48 years of driving i have never had a vechicle with a broken frame when i asked ford for phone number or address to mr. fields i was told that is not given out and that the ford supervisors denail was final decision. i feel ford is 100% wrong in this issue and is not making safe cars, and when there is a recall will not even fix the recalled parts. once again this is an extremely dangerous situation that could have resulted in death to my family if i was driving on the x-way shame shame on you ford motor. i will be looking into filing law suit or class action law suit againstyou. please do the right thing for the unlucky individuals who own these cars.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 202286 miles.
