2002 FORD ESCAPE Engine And Engine Coolingenginegasoline Problems

DT: VEHICLE LOST POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, THOUGHT IT WAS FUEL INJECTORS. PUT FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER AND BETTER GAS BUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER. THE MECHANIC SAID THE THE IDLE AIR CONTROL MOTOR WAS*AK BAD. THE MECHANIC DID REPLACE IT AND HAVE THE PART. THE VEHICLE STARTED DOING THIS AROUND JUNE 1, 2005. HAVE NOT CONTACTED DEALER.

MY 2002 FORD ESCAPE WITH 9,000 MILES HAS A TENDENCY TO STALL WHILE COASTING AT AN EXTREMELY LOW SPEED. HITTING A SLIGHT SPEED BUMP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE OCCURRENCES. MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED AT LEAST 12 TIMES DURING THE LAST 4 WEEKS. THE PROBLEM MAY BE RELATED TO AN INFREQUENT TENDENCY OF A DEAD INSTRUMENT PANEL WHEN STARTING WITH A KEY. IF I GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND GET BACK IN, IT WILL EVENTUALLY START EXCEPT FOR ONE TIME WHEN IT HAD TO BE TOWED. BUT, MY COMPLAINT IS THE STALLING PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN FIXING ANYTHING AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT STALLED ON THEM AS WELL. WHILE NOBODY HAS HIT MY DEAD VEHICLE YET, IT IS A CONCERN. THUS FAR, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN ABLE TO RESTART AFTER STALLING, IT IS NOT AN EASY RESTART. THE STALLING HAS MOSTLY OCCURRED AFTER...

AFTER DRIVING THE ESCAPE FOR A FEW HOURS...RUNNING ERRANDS AND WHAT NOT...WE PARK THE CAR FOR A SHORT TIME...THEN THE CAR WON'T START. IT WILL TURN OVER, BUT IF THE GAS ISN'T KEPT ON IT STALLS. HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALER 4 TIMES NOW AND THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE SITUATION. USUALLY AFTER LETTING THE CAR SIT FOR SEVERAL HOURS, IT WILL START UP AND RUN FINE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR TWO MONTHS NOW. *JB

THE ENGINE ON MY 2002 FORD ESCAPE STALLS UNEXPECTEDLY. IT STALLS WHILE SHIFTING GEARS AT A STANDSTILL AND WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS LAST CONDITION ESPECIALLY IS QUITE DANGEROUS AS THERE IS A LOSS OF BRAKING AND POWER STEERING. SOMETIMES IT WILL STALL UP TO 5 TIMES BEFORE GETTING IT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. IT STALLS WHEN THE ENGINE IS BOTH COLD AND HOT. I HAVE HAD IT TO MY FORD DEALER, WHO HAS EVEN HAD IT STALL WHILE HOOKED UP TO THEIR COMPUTER. AND STILL THEY HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD IT IN ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS SINCE JULY 2003. IT ONCE STALLED WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT AROUND A HAIRPIN TURN. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS COMING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. IT HAS BEEN STALLING SINCE BEFORE JULY 11, WHEN IT WAS FIRST BROUGHT TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM. *JB

I AM A CONSUMER WHO HAS JUST PURCHASED A USED 2002 FORD ESCAPE FROM A FORD DEALERSHIP IN RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA. HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE, INCLUDING STALLING WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AGO AND SPECIFICALLY ASKED THEM TO CHECK IT DUE TO THE SLUGGISH AND STALLING BEHAVIOR. I INSISTED THAT THEY DO A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHICH THEY SAID THEY PERFORMED, BUT NOTHING SHOWED UP. YESTERDAY ON THE WAY TO CHURCH, I HAD PROBLEMS KEEPING IT RUNNING AFTER STARTING IT. I HAD TO MAINTAIN PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL AT ALL TIMES.VERY TIME I GOT TO A LIGHT OR SLOWED FOR A TURN, THE CAR STALLED AND SHUT OFF, CAUSING COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER.*AK I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND GOT VERY LITTLE HELP. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE CAR DOES NOT HAVE A SYSTEM...

COMPLETE ENGINE SEIZURE AT 17,000 MILES. NUMBER 2 AND 5 CYLINDERS ARE DESTROYED. WE CHANGED THE OIL EVERY 5,000 MILES AND FORD IS FIGHTING US ON REPLACING THE ENGINE. AFTER SEARCHING NHTSA, I COME TO REALIZE WE ARE NOT ALONG. BURT FORD ARAPAHOE HAD BEEN HELPFUL, PROVIDING A RENTAL CAR FOR FREE; HOWEVER, THEY HAVE NOT BEEN FORTH COMING ON HOW MANY ESCAPES HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS. *AK

MY ESCAPE WAS STILL NEW WHEN I FIRST EXPERIENCED A TOTAL STALL. I WAS ON A DOWNHILL EXIT RAMP FROM THE INTERSTATE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A VERY BUSY ONE WAY STREET THROUGH AN EVEN BUSIER INTERSECTION. I COASTED AT ABOUT 30-35 MPH DOWN TO MAKE MY TURN AND REALIZED THAT I HAD NO STEERING OR POWER AT ALL. I HAD TO FIGHT TO MAKE THE LEFT TURN AND GET TO THE CURB. THE EXPERIENCE LEFT ME SHAKING IN SHOCK AND FEAR FOR QUITE SOME TIME. I HAD NO TROUBLE RESTARTING IT AFTER I REGAINED MY COMPOSURE. I TOOK IT TO THE INITIAL POINT OF SALE AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD NOT HEARD OF ANY PROBLEMS. THEY "COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM". I HAVE HAD THREE ADDITIONAL STALLS, A DIFFERENT DEALER REPLACED THROTTLE, AIR INTAKE. ANOTHER STALL. SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE THE CD PLAYER HAS BEEN WORKED ON...

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED ENGINE STALLING WHILE DRIVING. ALL VITAL FUNCTIONS FROZE SO I LOST STEERING CAPABILITY, BRAKES, ACCELERATION, ETC. I COULD NOT RESTART THE CAR UNTIL THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP (IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION) AND I COULD PUT THE CAR INTO 'PARK'. I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO HAVE ONLY BEEN GOING AT LOWER SPEEDS AND SIDE ROADS DURING ALL THREE INSTANCES SO FAR. BUT DRIVING IN THE D.C METROPOLITAN AREA ALSO REQUIRES A OUT OF HIGH-SPEED HIGHWAY DRIVING AS WELL AND I AM EXTREMELY WORRIED THAT I MAY NOT BE SO FORTUNATE THE NEXT TIME! DT

WHILE TRAVELING ABOUT 35 TO 40MPH AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING . THE VEHICLE WILL STALL PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DEALER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. TS

WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE COMPLETED QUIT RUNNING NO POWER, NO STEERING, NO LIGHTS, RADIO, ETC. I COASTED TO SIDE OF ROAD AND PUT CAR IN PARK. I THEN RE-STARTED ENGINE AND EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS A 'SOFTWARE GLITCH' AND A CHIP NEEDED REPROGRAMMING FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT OCCURRED SINCE THEN. BUT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A TRAGEDY HAD I BEEN DRIVING 80 MPH DOWN AN ATLANTA INTERSTATE; FORTUNATELY I WAS ON AN ACCESS ROAD GOING 40-45 MPH. DT

FOR NO APPARENT REASON ENGINE STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND RESTART, BUT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS IN HEAVIER TRAFFIC OR ON FREEWAY. DT

PROBLEMS WITH POWER ASSIST, ENGINE AND BRAKES. MR

THIS VEHICLE HAS SUFFERED COMPLETE POWER FAILURE WITH NO WARNING ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. SPEED EACH TIME WAS APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. IN EACH INSTANCE, THE ENGINE WOULD RESTART IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED BY A FORD DEALER EACH TIME BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE CONDITION AND HAVE MADE MINOR ELECTRONIC/COMPUTER ADJUSTMENTS WHICH HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE ADVISED US TO WAIT FOR A RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD.

2002 FORD ESCAPE WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING. STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES LOCKED AT THE TIME OF THE STALLING. THE CAR BECOMES UNMANUVERABLE AND THE DRIVER HAS TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK IN MOVING TRAFFIC IN ORDER TO RESTART THE CAR. HAVE BROUGHT THIS CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES NOW. EACH TIME THE DEALERSHIP HAS ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THE CAR BY "RE-CALIBRATING" WHICH MEANS UPDATING THE SOFTWARE. THE SOFTWARE UPDATES HAVE DONE NOTHING FOR THE CAR AS OF YET. CONFIDENCE IN THE ESCAPE IS NO LONGER THERE AND THE DRIVER(S) ARE STUCK WITH A LEMON THAT FORD WILL NOT BUY BACK. CAR IS VERY UNSAFE FOR DRIVER AND OTHER DRIVER'S ON THE ROAD. MR
