NHTSA Complaint #11206628 — 2008 FORD ESCAPE

THE SUV INTERMITTENTLY GOES INTO A NO CRANK/NO START CONDITION. YOU TURN THE KEY AND IT DOESN'T CRANK. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I'M TRAVELING AND LEFT ME STRANDED AT A REST STOP AND PANICKING THINKING IT WASN'T GONNA START. SINCE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME MECHANICS CAN ONLY RELY ON WHAT THEY THINK COULD BE THE PROBLEM WHICH INCLUDE THE IGNITION SWITCH IGNITION LOCK MODULE AND STARTER RELAY. I'VE ALSO FOUND A VARIETY OF REVIEWS EXPLAINING EVEN AFTER PARTS ARE REPLACED THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTING FOR THIS SPECIFIC MAKE AND MODEL. AND CONCERNING RECALL NUMBER 14V284000. FORD DEALERSHIPS ARE ONLY CLEARING THE RECALL CODES IF THEY CONSIDER THE PART NOT NEEDING TO BE CHANGED SO THAT AFTETWARDS WHEN THE STEERING TORQUE SENSOR DOES GO BAD THEY NO LONGER HAVE TO CHECK IT OR FIX IT FOR FREE. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM FOR THIS TO HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED YET.
