Consumer Description

WEDNESDAY AUGUST 28, 2013-I WAS GOING DOWN MY STREET HEADED TO WORK-I HAD JUST PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. MAYBE GOING 15-20 MILES PER HOUR. THEN THE ESCAPE JOLTED FORWARD LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL AND SHUT OFF. IT DID NOT START BACK UP RIGHT AWAY LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO. THURSDAY AUGUST 29, 2013-JOLTED, STALLED, AND SHUT OFF 3 DIFFERENT TIMES TODAY. ONE OF THOSE TIMES, THE VEHICLE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND A SEMI TRUCK WAS COMING UP BEHIND ME AND ALMOST HIT ME! VERY SCARY!!! UNSAFE!! AS I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR. IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE LOSING THEIR LIFE FOR SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM?! FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AND RIGHT THEIR WRONG AND QUIT IGNORING IT.
