| 2008 | PARKING BRAKE | 2008 FORD ESCAPE HYBRID: TURNED ON THE CAR, TURNED INTO A DRIVE WAY TO TURN AROUND NOTICED PARKING BRAKE LIGHT ON. BRAKE NOT ENGAGED? BRAKE FAILURE CAR ROLLING INTO PARKED VEHICLE HAD TO PUT CAR IN PARK TO STOP. BACKED OUT OF DRIVE WAY ABS LIGHT ON, BRAKE FAILURE ON DASH, GET BRAKES CHECKED, PARKING BRAKE LIGHT ON. NO BRAKES. I BACKED UP AGAIN AND THEN THE LIGHTS WERE OUT AND THE CAR HAD HYPER BRAKES.... LIGHT BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE WAY SENSITIVE. OVER STOPPAGE... TOOK TO DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS A CONNECTION TO THE BATTERY? THEN MY SON TOLD ME ABOUT THE HYDRAULIC PROBLEM????? FORD STILL HAS CARE SERVICING OTHER ISSUES, 34,485 MILES>. *TR |
| 2010 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | I HAD NOTICED OVER THE WEEKEND THAT ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN I PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL IT WOULD REV UP BUT NOT GO ANYWHERE WHILE I WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD. ON MONDAY, I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TAKING A LEFT THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN IT WENT INTO A BIT OF A STALL. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WAS ABLE TO TURN IT OFF, THEN TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND WHEN THE DEALERSHIP (BELL FORD) CALLED THEY SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND IT SEEMS THIS IS A RAMPANT PROBLEM WITH OTHER FORD ESCAPE OWNERS. I ONLY HAVE ABOUT 62,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND IT MAKES ME VERY ANGRY THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE CONSIDERING HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND A RECALL SHOULD BE SENT IN TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE! *TR |
