Consumer Description
I purchased my 2013 ford escape vehical in febuary 2022 from a local transmission shop, so iv've had it for a good 7 months and its has been nothing but problem after problem with this vehical, the first issue i noticed was the brake fluid leak and i was having to coonstatly refil it until i was able to pay someone to repair it for me. Also My coolant is needing to be filled up about every 2 weeks, and i have to constantly check it just to be sure because sometimes the light wont even pop up. The most recent issue that im having is a huge fuel leak, it just started about 4 days ago and its spraying out of a metal fule line by the engine, after doing some research its a recall for the year and make of my vehical, i called ford in to get information on what i could do and they bassicallly said they wouldnt repair it since my vin number is not linked with that specific recal. I'm a single mother of a 2 year old and this is my only source of transportation, i do not have the funds to repair this and i do believe alot of the issues are recalls and should be fixed and covered by ford.
