Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-5 AND 2011 FORD ESCAPE STARTED TO DECELERATE WHILE FOOT WAS ON THE GAS PEDAL. HAD TO SWITCH LANES AND EXIT HIGHWAY BEFORE I LOST MOMENTUM. NO ONE WAS INJURED IN THE PROCESS. SHUT IT OFF FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES THEN TURNED IT OVER BUT IT STRUGGLED TO FIRE. WHEN STARTED WE DROVE STRAIGHT HOME AND PARKED IT. I THEN GOT ON THE COMPUTER TO RESEARCH THE ISSUE AND LOOKED UP ANY RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. I FOUND ARFC AND SEEN ABOUT 270 OR MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. I'M CURIOUS WHY FORD DIDN'T RECALL THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE THAT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS YOU THINK SOMETHING WOULD BE DONE. *TR
