NHTSA Complaint #11118606 — 2011 FORD ESCAPE

CAR WOULD SIT IN THE DRIVEWAY AND LIGHTS AND OTHER ACCESSORIES WOULD COME ON. WHILE DRIVING THE RADIO AND OTHER ACCESSORIES WOULD GO OFF. TROUBLE WITH LIFT GATE NOT OPENING AND NOT CLOSING. CAR WOULD NOT START SOMETIMES. BY WIGGLING VARIOUS FUSES AND CURCUIT BREAKERS THE PROBLEM WOULD SUBSIDE FOR A WHILE. I ENDED UP SPENDING OVER $1200.00 TO REPLACE THE FUSE BLOCK AND WIRING HARNESS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM LIVING WITH MY FINGERS CROSSED. I AM A WOMAN LIVING ON AN EXTREAMLY LIMITED INCOME BUT I NEED MY CAR. THESE PROBLEMS WERE EXPERIENCED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY, OR ANY OTHER TIME MY CAR WAS IN MOTION.
