NHTSA Complaint #11219179 — 2013 FORD ESCAPE

WHILE MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY (APPROXIMATELY 2.5 YEAR AGO, WHEN IT WAS CLOSE TO 50,000 MILES), I BROUGHT MY CAR IN BECAUSE IT WAS SLOWLY LEAKING COOLANT. THEY FOUND A LEAK, BUT SINCE THE REPAIR WAS SO EXPENSIVE, I DECIDED IT WOULD BE CHEAPER TO JUST KEEP REFILLING IT. AT THAT TIME, I HAD TO REFILL IT EVERY FEW MONTHS. RECENTLY, IT HAS BEEN MUCH WORSE WHERE I NEED TO REFILL IT EVERY WEEK. MY CAR ALSO STALLED (WITHIN A MINUTE AFTER STARTING IT), BUT I AM UNSURE WHETHER THOSE THINGS ARE CONNECTED. I HAVE READ ABOUT MANY RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE (SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR), BUT MY NOTHING COMES UP WHEN I SEARCH MY VIN. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT 99,000 MILES.
