NHTSA Complaint #10639206 — 2009 FORD ESCAPE

VEHICLE HAS HAD ISSUES WITH THE DASHBOARD GAUGES LOCKING UP WHILE DRIVING, TOOK TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY CAUSE OF ISSUE. IF I HIT THE DASH IT GAUGES WOULD START TO WORK AGAIN. WHEN GAUGES WERE NOT WORKING, A/C WOULD STOP WORKING AS WELL. MOST CONCERNING IS THE LAST TWO DAYS MY CAR HAS STOPPED ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING IT, I CAN PUT THE GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT STILL WON'T ACCELERATE. DURING THAT TIME A/C STOPS BLOWING COOL AIR AND IF I APPLY MY BRAKES THE ENTIRE CAR WILL START TO SHAKE AS IF IT IS GOING TO DIE. I TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT AND IT RUNS FINE, HOWEVER IT DOES TAKE A SEC LONGER TO TURN OVER WHEN I START IT AT THAT POINT. I AM TAKING IT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT TODAY. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE REPAIRS TO THIS VEHICLE PERTAINING TO THE SENSORS. *TR
