Consumer Description

MY 2002 FORD ESCAPE STALLED WHILE SLOWING DOWN AND GOING DOWN A HILL. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. OF COURSE THERE WAS LIMITED BREAKING AND THE STEERING GOT VERY STIFF. LUCKILY NO OTHER CARS WERE AROUND OR THERE COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT.
