Consumer Description
My engine light came on in September 2024. I took it to the Ford dealership and they told me it was my purge valve. I had my mechanic replace my purge valve and my engine light went off. 24 hours later my engine light came back on. I took it to the Ford dealership and they said the valve was loose and they fixed it. My engine light was off when they gave me my vehicle back. 2 fays layer my engine light came back on. While driving on I-45 my car shut off and stalled. I talked with the Ford corporate office and they informed me about my car's safety recall and that they will not have the parts until next year. I wanted to have my car be a total loss and purchase a 2024 Ford Escape. I was not approved and Ford is trying to give me my car back. I no longer feel safe driving behind the wheel of a car that has an increasing chance of shutting off and causing a crash.
