Ford Escape Engine Safety Report | Sept 02, 2013
Reported on Sept 02, 2013
| THE FIRST OCCURRENCE I WAS DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS AT 40 MPH AND THE ENGINE LOST POWER COMPLETELY AND A SMALL WRENCH LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. I PULLED OVER SAFELY AND SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN, WAITED A MINUTE AND THE ENGINE STARTED RIGHT UP. THE SAME THING BEGAN HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. IN TRAFFIC, ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS PROBLEM HAS ALMOST CAUSED SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT COULD BE. I LOOKED THE PROBLEM UP AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT! *TR | |
