NHTSA Complaint #10695237 — 2011 FORD ESCAPE

SINCE JANUARY, VEHICLE WOULD RANDOMLY STALL WITH NO WARNING. FIRST ALERTED WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS AND VEHICLE KEPT SLOWING DOWN THEN ENGINE, BATTERY, OIL LIGHTS LIT UP. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED. NOTICED WHEN IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY SINCE, THAT THE RPM DROP QUICKLY BELOW 1. HAS BEEN IN FORD SERVICES DEPARTMENT 3 TIMES WITHIN THE PAST 2-3 WEEKS. THEY CHANGED FILTER, CLEANED CARBON BUILD-UP. SECOND TIME AT FORD, THEY CHANGED THE THROTTLE BODY. THE LAST TIME STALL OCCURRED WAS ON DC BELTWAY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN FAST MOVING TRAFFIC - PANIC EXPERIENCE! IT WAS TOWED TO FORD, KEPT 4 DAYS - DROVE AROUND CLAIMED COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THEY WANT ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK. I AM IN FEAR CAUSING AN ACCIDENT, INJURING MYSELF, PASSENGERS INCLUDING MY GRANDCHILDREN, AND OTHER DRIVERS WITH THEIR PASSENGERS. THIS VEHICLE IS WONDER AS FAR AS COMFORT AND GAS MILEAGE BUT IS A RISK TO SAFETY. NOT WORTH KEEPING AND SHOULD BE LABEL A LEMON IF THEY CAN'T FIX. *TR
