Ford Escape Engine Safety Report | Oct 19, 2013
Reported on Oct 19, 2013
| AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 90 MILES WITHOUT A STOP, STOPPED AT TRAFFIC SIGNAL, VEHICLE ENGINE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD. PUT IN PARK AND IT RESTARTED. DID THIS AGAIN APPROXIMATELY 11 TIMES DURING THE DAY. ENGINE JUST CUT OFF COMPLETELY AT EVERY TRAFFIC STOP. TOOK TO DEALER. DEALER VERY RESPONSIVE BUT CAN GET NO ERROR CODE AND DOES NOT KNOW WHY IT IS HAPPENING. THEY CAN NOT GET IT TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IT ONLY A FEW MILES AT A TIME. THIS IT THE 2.0 L ENGINE AND I SEE OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO FIX. DEALER HAS VEHICLE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT IS HAPPENING. HOW ABOUT FORD MOTOR COMPANY STEPPING UP AND ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR | |
