Consumer Description

ON 6/18/2013 I WAS DRIVING AROUND 45 MPH AND MY ESCAPE'S ENGINE/POWER TRAIN COMPLETELY TURNED OFF AND I COASTED ONTO THE SHOULDER. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND IT STARTED AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO A GARAGE WE USE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. A FEW DAYS LATER THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AGAIN WHEN I WAS DRIVING AROUND 60 MPH. I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT AGAIN. ON 8/2/2013 THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN ONCE AGAIN. THIS TIME THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I PAID OVER $600 TO HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AT THIS TIME. *TR
