| 2009 | POWER TRAIN | I DRIVE A 2009 FORD ESCAPE AUTOMATIC WITH A V6 ENGINE. ON SUNDAY, MAY 26, 2013 AT APPROXIMATELY 1:00 AM, I WAS DRIVING AT 70 MPH ON INTERSTATE 10 WEST. SUDDENLY, I HEARD A SINGLE CLICK SOUND. THE WRENCH WAS ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH BOARD AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STOPPED WORKING. NO MATTER WHAT I DID, NOTHING HAPPENED. I WAS TERRIFIED THAT I WOULD BE REAR ENDED BY THE CARS BEHIND ME FOR SLOWING DOWN SUDDENLY, SO I PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND MOVED TO THE INTERSTATE MEDIAN. I TURNED MY TRUCK OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTARTED IT. I WAS ABLE TO PROCEED HOME WITH NO FURTHER ISSUE. THIS WHOLE INCIDENT CAME WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING. IF A LIGHT INDICATING THAT SERVICE WAS NEEDED, I COULD HAVE AVOIDED THIS NIGHTMARE. I AM NOW LEARNING THAT THERE IS A DEFECT WITH THIS VEHICLE. *TR |
| 2009 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | VEHICLE SUDDENLY STARTED DECELERATING AT A RAPID PACE. I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH, AND THE GAS PEDAL SUDDENLY SEEMED TO STOP SENDING GAS TO THE ENGINE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND COAST TO A STOP. THIS WAS NOT COVERED BY MY LIFETIME WARRANTY AND IS GOING TO COST ME OVER $600 IN TOWING, PARTS AND LABOR. *TR |
