| 2005 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | I LIVE IN VIRGINIA AND FRIDAY MORNING GOT UP AND THERE WAS FROST ON THE WINDSHIELD. I GOT IN THE 2005 FORD ESCAPE LET IT WARM UP FOR ABOUT 5 MINS. DROVE APPROX 1 & 1/2 MILES STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN TO TURN OUT ON A MAIN ROAD AND PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. I LET IT ROLL BACKWARDS TO A SAFE PLACE AND TURNED IT OFF. I TRIED IT MANY TIMES FOR OVER 30 MINUTES AND IT FINALLY WORKED. THIS HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER BUT USUALLY AFTER 5 MINS. IT WILL WORK. THIS TIME WAS DIFFERENT AND MORE SCARY AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PULL OUT ON TO A MAIN ROAD. *TR |
| 2013 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I PURCHASED A 2013 FORD ESCAPE IN OCT 2012. IT HAS BEEN IN SERVICE THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE. FAULTY ENGINE LIGHT "SERVICE NOW" BUT COMPUTER DIDN'T CAPTURE ANY ISSUES WITH VEHICLE. FIRST TIME DEALER CHANGED THE MASS PRESSURE AIR SENSOR. THE SECOND TIME THEY CONTACT FORD WHICH TOLD THEM TO UPGRADE THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE, THIS TIME I CALLED TO HAVE THE MANUFACTURER SEND THE FORD ENGINEER WHICH STATES IT IS THE ONBOARD COMPUTER. HE EMAILED FORD FOR THE DIAGRAMS SINCE VEHICLE IS NEW AND NOT AVAILABLE TO THE DEALER (SO THAT IS WHAT I AM BEING TOLD). THE DEALER HAS NO IDEA OF WHAT THE PROBLEM TRULY IS. FINALLY CONTACT MANUFACTURING WHO STATES IT IS A COMPUTER COMPONENT. VEHICLE STILL AT DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE LUNGING AND HESITATION OF THE VEHICLE WHEN YOU DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR. IT DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO GET YOU OUT OF AN INTERSECTION IF NEEDED. IT LUNGES FORWARD AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE OR THE FUEL INJECTORS. *TR |
