2008 FORD ESCAPE FAILURE TO EXCEL OR STICKING WHEN PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER HAPPENING TOO MANY TIMES, AND SCARES US TO USE THE CAR WE TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS. ACCORDING TO WARRANTY, THIS IS NOT COVERED YET THERE WAS NO REGULAR MAINTENANCE NEEDED OR REQUIRED ON THE GAS PEDAL. THEY WEREN'T GOING TO HONOR OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY UNTIL WE SHOWED THEM NUMEROUS ONLINE EMAILS OF OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WE HAD TO PAY $100 DEDUCTIBLE FROM OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY POLICY. WE FEEL THEY AREN'T TELLING THE GENERAL PUBLIC THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. WE FEEL THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS A RECALL. *TR
