Consumer Description
I was driving my 2014 Ford escape and it was cold temperatures but I came to a stop sign and when I went to go it was like I was in neutral it would not move it had never done this before and I was pushing the gas and the engine just raced. I turned the vehicle off and restarted and it went like nothing had happened. But as I'm driving it started slowing down and like it was stopping but it was still running, I continue pressing the gas showed I had 6000 rpm and was only going 31 mph, started jerking and I pulled over shut the engine down and repeated it again until I was able to reach my destination. I tried moving my vehicle and it didn't want to move shut it down about 6 times and restarted and eventually able to get it to move but am afraid to drive because it has never done that and I was in A LOT OF TRAFFIC with no warning of any issues.
