Ford Escape Change Vehicle

“Compressor stopped working then froze up. It no longer spins so car had to be towed to be fixed”

“Bad compressor required about a $900 repair but now is working fine”

“compressor leaks”

“Tailgate and both rear doors are experiencing paint peeling at the bottom of the doors and hatch”

“Hood started crackling along the front edge almost immediately after purchase in August 2011. It has continued to so ever since. The car is garaged & isn't left out in the sun. Will have to replace the hood to make it look decent”

“I am unsure how to have it fixed and if it is even worth having fixed”

“Ford is not able to tell me why check engine says there is a spark plug or coil problem. Light has been on for over 3 years”

“ignition coil on a cylinder failed and all spark plugs needed to be replaced. parts were very costly from dealer. later found them to be 25 to 40 %less at auto parts stores”

“Check engine light says problem with spark plug and coils but Ford cannot find the problem so simply inspects the car with the light on. They are now looking at a slight occasional miss when car tries to gain some power. Again they are not able to find out why”

“Alarm system is constantly going off for no reason”

“Alarm randomly activates at any time of day. Have had all contacts checked but no solution”

“it goes off for no reason at times”

“The transmission failed and had to be replaced”

“Transmission froze up at 100,000 miles. Needed a new one. Had rebuilt transmission installed but don't know if it will last”

“Transmission abruptly began to fail to shift as expected and would remain in a lower gear. Aamco did a major rebuild for some major money and it's worked fine ever since but their customer service was less than ideal”

“I had the valve gasket replaced and now the timing chain gasket needs to be replaced also at a cost of over $800.00. I am waiting until the leak gets really bad before replacing that. Other than that the car is running and working fine”

“oil pan seal is going. Leaks oil on to the exhaust manfold. Smells its annoying”

“Very minor leak so far. Less the 5 ounces in 3000 miles”

“Can no longer read CD's”

“it jams and teh cost to repair it is 400.00. told ford this was bad sub contractor and they told me they have fixed the problem but not for my car”

“I only use my SUV's CD player to listen to music. I don't use the radio at all. However, the display screen which shows me music details (i.e., Which CD & which track, as well as volume) is blank. It's been this way for over 1 year”

“driveshaft disintergrated”

“Carrier bearing went bad no way to change or grease the bearing you have to replace the whole drive shaft”

“vibration in the drive shaft which require replaceing”

“Overheating was the actual problem. If we had known that, we could have pulled over, aired out the engine, and resumed travel”

“On a "pleasure" weekend trip, the engine suddenly shut off, with text warnings to pull over and stop. Both the owner's manual & the telephone "help" pointed in wrong directions. A $600-$700 dealership visit identified coolant pump failure”

“Pump failure with leaks”

“The car would fail to recognize that it was in park, thus not allowing you to remove the key. The vehicle would also be very difficult to shift out of "park."”

“hatch stops at 80% open”

“New catalytic converter required”

“Not a big problem but had to have several connection areas repaired”

“bought this vehicle, drove only 383 km, had to replace alternator. After 1600 km, engine went, now need to replace but have no money, have not finished paying off the purchase. no warrantee”
