Ford Zx2 (escort) 2003 Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Review #10080940

FORD ZX2 (ESCORT) 2003 car safety problem was reported on July 12, 2004.FORD ZX2 (ESCORT) 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . i have a 2003 ford zx2 that has had a severe idle vibration for nearly one year that ford is refusing to fix. the defect causes a severe vibration in the steering wheel, glove box, vents, and seats of the car and occurs on a daily basis in any gear or any driving condition. this vehicle is still under warranty and it is obvious that the company is aware of the problem due to service bulletin 03-15-15. i have been told by the dealerships that the vehicle's emissions are so low the vehicle is trying to turn off at idle and that the check engine light will likely come on soon. i was also told that this defect is merely "cosmetic and an annoyance to the customer" and that it cannot be fixed. i have taken the vehicle to 4 dealerships and 1 local shop and ford is still refusing to fix the defect. i do not feel safe in this vehicle and would like the problem fixed, as would anyone in this situation. i feel that ford as a company is doing very poor business and something needs to be done about this. *la.Mileage was 10000 miles.

FORD ZX2 (ESCORT) 2003 car safety problem was reported on June 05, 2005.FORD ZX2 (ESCORT) 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . whenever the a/c compressor is on.....and you take your foot off the accelerator pedal....the car continues to maintain its speed!!....just as if you had the cruise control set. the only time the vehicle does this is when the a/c compressor is activated. i have brought the car to both local dealerships here and neither of them were able to correct the problem. the only way to keep the engine from racing when this happens...is to turn off the compressor....or engage the clutch and wait for the engine to wind down..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 11 miles.

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????
