Consumer Description
To: HTSA: We believe that our 2014 Ford Escape motor vehicle has a mechanical defect that caused it to catch fire while driving on the highway with our family inside. We are alive because another driver reported the fire in the car and we stopped and got out at the exact time before the car burned to the ground. We have a 22S43 Safety Campaign Notice for that vehicle. We are notifying you of what happened because we understand that the reason the vehicle caught fire was due to a mechanical malfunction that caused that horrible and shocking event, putting life safety at risk. So far we have not had support from anyone. We have lost our property and risked our lives by being the user of a defective Ford vehicle that placed our lives at imminent risk of death. The incident occurred on 04/02/2023 on street 2 km 203.1 Guayanilla Puerto Rico. I request your prompt attention in this matter so that you can investigate what is related to safety and the damage that caused this fire to burn the vehicle.
