Ford Escape Fuel/propulsion System Safety Report | Sept 11, 2013
Reported on Sept 11, 2013
| THE CAR WAS DRIVING FINE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY IT COMPLETELY LOST POWER AND WOULDN'T STOP TO COMPLETION. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE CAR AND STARTING IT BACK UP AGAIN, THE CAR FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL. THE FORD DEALERSHIP MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A MALFUNCTIONING THROTTLE BODY AND ASKED ME TO PAY OVER $600 FOR THE REPAIR, AS THE VEHICLE WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. I THOUGHT IT WAS A GLITCH BUT THE ISSUE HAS OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES IN THE PAST MONTH. *TR | |
