TL* - WHEN DRIVING 50 MPH IN A 2007 FORD ESCAPE THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS WERE DOWN AND THE CONTACT HEARD A THUMPING NOISE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 600 MILES. *AK

STEERING
I WAS DRIVING TO PICK UP MY DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL AND THE CAR STEERING STIFFENED UP. I WAS IN THE PARKING LOT SO LUCKILY NOTHING HAPPENED. I STOPPED AND RESTARTED THE CAR BUT IT WAS STILL STIFF THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN AND TAKE CAR OUT OF THE LOT. I HAD TO LEAVE THE CAR THERE AND BRING THE KIDS HOME ON MY OWN. NOT WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM A NEW CAR AND CERTAINLY VERY LUCK Y TO NOT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. FORD SAYING IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THEY FORGOT THE HARNESS IN THE POWER STEERING. IT WAS THEN TAKEN FROM A NEW CAR AND PLACED ON MY CAR. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE WITH IT BUT THEY SAID THEY CANNOT GIVE ME A NEW CAR. *TR
