Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY NEWLY PURCHASED FORD ESCORT (BOUGHT IN MAY 2014) I LOST POWER,THE VEHICLE DID NOT SHUT OFF BUT I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE & IT SPUTTERED & SHOOK UNTIL I COULD SAFELY PULL OFF THE ROAD. A LIGHTED WRENCH CAME ON WHICH I HAD NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I LOOKED IN THE MANUAL (DRIVETRAIN). ONCE I WAS SAFELY OFF THE ROAD I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF & WAITED AWHILE & STARTED IT BACK UP & IT HAD POWER AGAIN & I CONTINUED ON MY WAY. I WAS OUT OF TOWN AT THE TIME WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. I REALLY AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS. I FEEL MY FAMILY WAS IN DANGER AS I WAS ON A VERY BUSY ROADWAY & LOST POWER IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS MY FIRST FORD VEHICLE & SO FAR NOT IMPRESSED. I REALLY HOPE THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE SOON. WHY DO WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THERE IS A CATASTROPHE FOR SOMETHING TO GET DONE? *TR
