Ford Escort 1990 Power Train Automatic TransmissionFord Escort 1990 Power Train Automatic Transmission Review #10313471 FORD ESCORT 1990 car safety problem was reported on Feb 23, 2001.FORD ESCORT 1990, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . 1990 ford escort with 1.9 l engine, throttle-body fuel inj, and man 5-speed transm. approx 8 hwy miles from home, passing thru small town with 25-mph limit, signal light, and rr crossing, the ford's engine suddenly revved to incredibly high rpm's. frightened, i immediately pushed in the clutch. no floor mat or stuck accelerator/mechanical problems existed. apparently this was a computer cause. within seconds, perhaps 4 to 8 seconds, i was prepared to turn off the key ignition to the vehicle. i tried pressing the accelerator once (in former carbureted autos, such an action would settle a revved engine normally). pressing accelerator had no effect. then within that range of just seconds, the vehicle settled itself prior to my reaching a railroad crossing. conditions involved smooth roadway, a gradual decline of speed (normal operation through most of this) from 55 to 45 to 35 to 25 near the signal light and "downtown" area. i owned and drove the 1990 escort from 1992 until 2006, from about 20,000 vehicle miles to about 184,000. this unaccountable acceleration never happened again. the vehicle was famous for losing ignition modules. the most dangerous occasion involved approaching the same town, about 6 miles from home. at 55 mph, engine stopped cold. fortunately, i realized situation, pressed in the clutch, and without power steering and little power brakes coasted into church parking lot handily near. later, i transported with the vehicle at all times a spare ignition module and necessary tools for installation. through the years the vehicle required about 5 modules. at other times the escort idled so slowly, that when clutch was depressed, vehicle would stall. full tune-ups never affected the stall tendency. as far as toyota's current sudden surges, i think the problem is very likely computer related. we are current owners of a 1.8 l 2005 corolla with auto transmission and 2004 pontiac vibe (same 1.8 l w/ man transm), and will continue to watch the toyota problems. *tr.Mileage was 120000 miles.

Ford Escort 1990 Structure BodyFord Escort 1990 Structure Body Review #10351100 FORD ESCORT 1990 car safety problem was reported on Apr 25, 1997.FORD ESCORT 1990, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . while traveling on a freeway at the speed limit of 65 miles per hour, i ended up in a skid on dry pavement. i don't remember how i got into the skid due to head injuries received in the resulting accident. the car skidded sideways for quite a ways and did not respond normally to attempts to steer it. perhaps the engine stalled and the power steering was no longer working. the car eventually hit the raised concrete rumble strips while skidding sideways. the car then flipped over in the air and tumbled down the median, with the first impact likely to the driver's side roof, knocking out the driver. the car continued to tumble down the median until the car vaulted and landed on its top. i remember being upside down in the air, but nothing else until i came to hanging upside down from my seat belt with blurred vision. i had 2 large lumps on the top of the head, a badly swollen jaw and gums, a swollen tongue (bitten on both sides), one nostril filled with blood, the back of my head neck and shoulders were swollen by what felt like about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. i had bruises around my right elbow, on my right thigh, and likely other places, as well as a compression fracture of the second lumbar vertebra from the bottom (l4?). since i had difficulty breathing, they did a tracheotomy on me while waiting for the ambulance. they pried open the rear hatch to get me out of the vehicle. i was in the hospital 5 days, out of work 5 weeks, and in various degrees of pain for about 1 year. the roof failed to protect me, the inertia lock shoulder harness failed to prevent my chin from hitting the steering wheel and its failure to work likely resulted in the compression fracture which the doctor said was probably from lunging forward. the only thing that kept me in the car was the manual adjusted lap belt, which is no longer installed in fords. all belts are inertia lock, like the shoulder belt of this car was. the vehicle had a manual transmission. *tr .Vehicle was involved in a crash. 1 person(s) were injured.

Ford Escort 1990 Reports
my 95 ford exploere engine surges when turn my air conditioner on Ihave a 1994 ford probe which has started to idle very low and stalls at times. It is a 4 cyl. w/ air and a 5 speed. any ideas? I replaced the fuel filter, air flow meter and added HEAT to gas tank to dry and clean fuel system. I think my pcv valv should a standard transmission truck start when it is in gear without the clucth engaged? should a 2005 standard transmission ford ranger start when in gear without the clutch engaged? 96 Ford F250 Emergency brake lever gets caught on the auto adjustment spring, causing brakes to be permanently engaged, also allowing the parking break lever to rub against the hub, which can cut through over time. try pushing the pedals button closer to you. you must have the pedal adjustment button to the left of the radio, looks like a foot, that brings the pedals more inward towards the driver. hope it helped. or look carefully if a wire has corroded. it i would check ur multi switch on ur stearing colum on the pedal whats the sound Just bought an '06 E-350 van. Left d'ship got on highway and noticed shimmy when I got to 60....same problem???? that happened to me last night! If you rock the car back and for while shifting then it should release the safety lock! why does it take turning off the veh. while pulling in on the shifter arm, them starting it again while still holding it inwards ever so slightly??
