My 2005 ford escape ltd with 122k miles with no warning stalls when i come to a stop, or when i'm going less than 5 mph. the vehicle has done then same thing when i was driving 65 on my way to lax, had to pull over to the shoulder and was almost side swiped and rear ended by cars. no check engine lights illuminate, nor can the mechanic find anything wrong. after doing research i've come to learn this is a very common problem among this year and model, yet ford will not address the issue with a recall. this is dangerous, i'm scared to drive my vehicle. there are thousands of complaints on the internet about this vehicle with the same issue. something needs to be done. ford is in the know. i'd like to see some action being done.
