I HAD APPROXIMATELY FOUR OCCURRENCES OF LOSING ALL THROTTLE RESPONSE, BASICALLY A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING ON THE LOS ANGELES FREEWAY SYSTEM. ENGINE RPM DROPS TO 1,000 AND PROVIDES IDLE POWER ONLY. A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHILE ON A 4 LANE CONGESTED HIGHWAY TRAVELING AT SPEEDS UPTO 65 MPH. *TR
2007
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE A 2007 FORD ESCAPE WITH 33,000 MILES. BOTH ABS TONE RINGS ON THE FRONT AXLE HAVE CRACKED AND ARE AFFECTING THE ABS SYSTEM. I CALLED FORD AND ASKED IF THIS WAS A COVERED WARRANTY CLAIM. FORD GAVE ME A RUN AROUND. WHEN I GOOGLE THIS PROBLEM, I LOCATED NUMEROUS PAGES OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM (CRACKED TONE RINGS). THIS APPEARS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND NHTSA NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE WHY THERE ARE SO MANY FAILURES OF THIS ABS PART. *TR
