NHTSA Complaint #11408348 — 2017 FORD ESCAPE

WHILE DRIVING, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON, AFTER I GOT GAS, THE CAR STALLED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE STARTING THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING HOME, I GOT A "HIGH TEMPERATURE WARNING, PULL OVER SAFELY" ALSO MY HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. AFTER TAKING MY CAR IN, A TUNEUP WAS DONE AS WELL AS ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD RADIATOR COOLANT WAS LOW. AFTER A FEW DAY, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN, TOOK BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY FOUND THAT THE COOLANT IS LEAKING BUT FROM DEEP INSIDE THE MOTOR AND WILL COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO REPAIR AND I WILL BE BETTER OFF TRYING TO TRADE IN MY CAR.. THIS IS A KNOWN DANGEROUS FORD ISSUE AND THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. MY CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED SINCE I GOT IT 2 YEARS AGO.
