Consumer Description

The car continues to have a leak of coolant even after the dealership claims it has been repaired. There is no visible sign of a coolant leak. The engine continues to run hot on a daily basis. The car does not even give a signal warning until it has already reached high temperatures and then states to shut the engine down immediately. The service center refuses to inspect my car as they state the recall has already been repaired. It appears to be an on going problem with 2014 1.6L Escape engines.
