Consumer Description

BOUGHT MY 05 XLT ESCAPE LAST MAY 2015 AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTED TO SHUDDER STALL WHILE IDLING AND JUST COMPLETELY DIE WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY! GOT THE CODES READ AND IT SAID I HAD A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 2, SO I PUT NEW COILS AND SPARK PLUGS IN IT BUT IT'S STILL NOT WORKING! STILL DOING A MISFIRE AND IT'S RUNNING BAD WHEN IT DECIDES TO CRANK UP! NOW IT'S NOT EVEN DRIVABLE.
