Consumer Description

"ENGINE RECALL" I HAVE A 2011 FORD ESCAPE & AFTER 7 MONTHS OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED A NEW ENGINE. I WAS HEADED HOME FROM WORK ON I95 THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE NEXT MORNING I GOT UP TO GO TO WORK AND THE ESCAPE WOULD NOT CRANK UP AT ALL IT DID NOT MOVE. FROM THE TIME I HAD THIS VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT START ON SOME DAYS SO IT WAS NO GOOD WHEN I BOUGHT IT. IT ONLY HAS 65000 MILES ON IT. THE CAMSHAFT & CRANKSHAFT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THAT PART OF THIS VEHICLE. I DROVE IT FOR 7 MONTHS & THERE WAS DAYS IT DIDN'T WANT TO START. I WASTED MY HARD EARNED CASH ON THIS PIECE OF JUNK AND NOW I DONT HAVE A CAR TO RIDE TO WORK. FORD NEED TO RECALL THIS ISSUE.
