| 2009 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25-30 MPH ON A SIDE STREET, VEHICLE STARTED TO SPUTTER AND STALL, FELT LIKE THE ENGINE WAS DYING, SO WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF INTO A PARKING LOT AND TURNED THE CAR OFF, SAT FOR A FEW MINS, THEN RESTARTED AND PULLED OUT AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS LATER, SIMILAR ISSUE, WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25 ON A SIDE STREET, CAR SPUTTERED, STALLED, SO PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF, WAITED THEN RESTARTED. A FEW DAYS LATER, WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 ON A SIDE STREET, SAME ISSUE, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, SO PULLED OVER AND CALLED FOR A TOW. CAR IS CURRENTLY BEING SERVICED AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE, WHICH I AM HAVING TO PAY $550 TO FIX. *TR |
| 2006 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | 2006 FORD ESCAPE GAS FILLS VERY SLOWLY. GAS BACKS OUT THE TANK. FORD REFUSES TO FIX IT BECAUSE I AM 5000 MILES OVER WARRANTY. KNOWN ISSUE SINCE 2006.....4 TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THE ISSUE. WANTS TO CHARGE ME $87 TO "DIAGNOSE" IT, PLUS LABOR, PARTS, ETC. DANGEROUS TO ME TO HAVE GAS SPILLING OUT OF VEHICLE BECAUSE THE DRAINAGE IS CLOGGED; THE GAS CAP COVER IS MISSING, SO I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT IT'S IN THE TUBE.....POOR CONSTRUCTION. *TR |
