Consumer Description

MY 2003 FORD ESCAPE STALLS WHILE DRIVING LEAVING ME WITHOUT POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. I CONTACTED FORD AT 800-392-3673 TO ASK ABOUT A RECALL. I FOUND OUT THAT FORD HAS RECALLED 363,440 FORD ESCAPES FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT CORRESPOND WITH THE 363,440 FORD ESCAPES THEY RECALLED BUT TO KEEP INTOUCH WITH MY SERVICE MANAGER AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR MORE UPDATES. AT THIS TIME THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. *TR
