While driving in a variety of circumstances, (in town at stoplight and accelerating on highway) my 2010 ford escape will just shut off. no warning, just dies. i have been to 4 mechanics including one at a ford dealer just today. no codes show, so every time i am basically told that they "can't duplicate issue" and i am sent on my way with no remedy for what is a very dangerous malfunction. i just called ford and started a case number to see what they will do. judging from other comments i have read on internet, i am not hopeful. i cannot understand why a recall wasn't issued and how i am just learning about the scope of the problem now-after spending $20k on this vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 ford escape. while driving 75 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. the contact coasted the vehicle over to the side of the road, turned on the hazard lights, shifted into neutral, and attempted to restart the vehicle, but it failed to start. the contact quickly shifted into park and powered off the engine. when the contact attempted to restart the vehicle, the engine sounded as if it were about to start, but it did not. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. a friend of the contact's family googled the failure, which indicated to reset the fuel pump switch located on the front passenger side. the fuel pump switch was reset and the vehicle was able to drive normally. on another occasion, while driving and slowing down, the vehicle hesitated to stop. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 137,000.
Vehicle has taken to stalling/dying without warning. this has happened three times in the past week. the car was in gear and going approximately 20-25 mph each time this occurred. fortunately, i was on residential streets with 25 mph limits and no cars were in the immediate vicinity on each occasion.
The vehicle flex fuel system is horrible and the vehicle shuts off for no apparent reason. we have have had the vehicle inspected and reviewed by mechanics, who come back with one issue, the flex fuel set up. so we ordered and replaced the flex fuel pipe 2 times now. the engine light still continues to pop back on after a couple of days go by. the car shutting off while driving is a safety issue. this vehicle was purchased for my 16 year old daughter from a dealership less than a year ago. i am scared to death she will crash when the vehicle shuts off on the interstate. the 2011 recall ford issued covered the same type of issue, which in my opinion should be expanded. my daughter just called and stated that the car shut off 5 times in the course of a mile. luckily, she was local.
The "check fuel fill inlet" came on a couple of miles after filling gas and stayed on. after a few more miles, the engine light came on and stayed on ever since. i have had the same problem 4 months ago, but my mechanic said it is a malfunction in the computer so we replaced the computer. but the problem came back. i have looked online for solutions and it seems many other ford escape users have had the same problem.
