Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD THE TWO RECALLS FIXED IN JULY FOR MY 2010 FORD ESCAPE. HOWEVER, IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP REGARDING THE (WRENCH LIGHT) THROTTLE/POWERTRAIN LIGHT COMING ON. MY CAR LOOSES POWER WHEN I ACCELERATE AND THE LIGHT COMES ON. IT GOES OFF ONCE I TURN OFF THE CAR WHICH IS MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. THEY CLAIM THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING AND UNFORTUNATELY I CAN'T GET THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. THEY HAVE RUN A HISTORY FOR THE CODES THAT HAVE COME UP ON THE CAR, BUT THERE ARE NO RECENT CODES/PROBLEMS. I KEEP TELLING THEM THAT I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS LISTED IN THE FORD RECALL NOTICE BUT I AM TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO IF THERE IS NO CODE SHOWING A PROBLEM. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY SON IN THIS CAR. I ALSO COMMUTE 100 MILES DAILY DOWN A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY AND I AM WORRIED THAT THE CAR WILL DIE AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. FORD NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE THE PROBLEM WITH THE ESCAPE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED! *TR
