Consumer Description

WE HAVE A 2013 FORD ESCAPE AND IT DIES/STALLS OUT PERIODICALLY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THERE IS NO WARNING AND TYPICALLY IT IS AFTER IDLING (EX: AT A STOP LIGHT). MY DAUGHTER WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AFTER GETTING GAS AND ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, AND SHE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE DIED AND SHE HAD TO COAST ACROSS A 7 LANE BUSY STREET TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC. THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM, IT HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MECHANIC AND IT DOESN'T TYPICALLY BRING UP A "CODE" ON THE MACHINE THEY USE. ON ONE OCCASION, IT DID AND WE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP ($600) WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN!!! AND AFTER READING SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! PLEASE DO SOMETHING!
