Ford Escape Power Train Safety Report | Nov 28, 2013
Reported on Nov 28, 2013
| LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 55 MPH MY 2011 FORD ESCAPE WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR SOUNDS SLOWED IMMEDIATELY TO LESS THAN 5 MPH. I MANAGED TO LET THE CAR CREEP INTO A LOCAL CAR TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ENGAGE IN FORWARD OR REVERSE. THIS MORNING I CALLED MY FORD DEALER WHO ASKED THAT I LEAVE THE KEYS WITH THE VEHICLE AND ARRANGE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. UPON ARRIVING TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP A SERVICEMAN SUGGESTED I TRY ENGAGING DRIVE AND REVERSE, I DID SO AND THE VEHICLE DID ENGAGE. I REPORTED THIS TO THE FORD DEALER PRIOR TO CALLING ROADSIDE TOWING AND STATED THAT I WOULD NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT IS FIXED. THE DEALER SAID HE WOULD ADVISE ME AS SOON AS THEY INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. *TR | |
