Ford Escape Engine Safety Report | July 01, 2012
Reported on July 01, 2012
| I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ( 40-65 MPH INTERVALS BETWEEN HIGHWAYS) FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR IS LOOSING POWER, SO I STEPPED ON THE GASOLINE PEDAL A LITTLE MORE TO KEEP THE SPEED. THE SAD PART IS THAT THERE WASN'T ANY LIGHT THAT CAME ON TO TELL OR WARN ME THAT SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG AND THAT MY CAR NEEDED TO BE CHECKED. I DROVE A TOTAL OF ONE HOUR THAT DAY AT 40-65 MPH INTERVALS. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR THE NEXT DAY, AFTER ABOUT 3 MINUTES OF THE ENGINE RUNNING, IT STARTED MAKING THIS REALLY LOUD NOISE AND MY CAR WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 2 MPH. *TR | |
