NHTSA Complaint #10936482 — 2008 FORD ESCAPE

TORQUE SENSOR AFTER THE EPS MODULE/TORQUE SENSOR SOFTWARE UPDATE IS MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN, WHEEL MOVES ON ITS OWN. WHILE DRIVING AND STATIONARY THE WHEEL TAKES "PHANTOM" MOVEMENTS WITH NO OPERATOR ENCOURAGEMENT. THE UPDATE FROM THE RECALL REGARDING THE TORQUE SENSOR DID NOT EFFECTIVELY FIX THE PROBLEM, THE PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED IN A RECALL. I HAVE REVIEWED AND READ NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THERE IS IN FACT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN CA AGAINST FORD RIGHT NOW FOR COMPENSATION IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE. FORD IS DENYING THE RECALL BECAUSE THE COST IS GREATER THAN SEPARATE LAWSUITS. NHTSA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! *TR
