I was driving on highway at 50 mph; driving straight when it seems like i had ran something. the vehicle sounded like a rubber band unwinding and began vibrating severely at right front. it appeared i might lose control. i de-accelerated and safely exited the highway. i could see nothing wrong when visibly inspecting the vehicle. subsequent investigation revealed a damaged cv boot, cv joint and three fractured bolts for the upper engine mount on the passenger side. two of fracture surfaces appeared they had been fractured for an extended period of time. the third bolt had a fracture surface that was rough and crystalline in appearance ) alluding to instantaneous fracture of the bolt.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 ford escape. the contact was not the first owner of the vehicle and was unaware that there was an internal fault with the throttle body. the wrench icon, check engine, and oil pressure warning indicators kept randomly illuminating. courtesy ford (6393 us-98 w, hattiesburg, ms 39402, (601) 264-5555) was aware that the manufacturer issued an unknown recall campaign to address the failure; however, there was no remedy for special coverage campaign number: 13n03 (throttle body extended coverage). the dealer stated that the vehicle was excluded because the mileage exceeded 8,000. the dealer diagnosed that the air flow sensor needed to be replaced. the part was replaced and the dealer stated that the throttle body was cleaned; however, both repairs failed to provide a remedy. the dealer and manufacturer expected the contact to replace the throttle body. the vehicle continued to lose speed and the contact was concerned that it could stall. the vehicle was not repaired and was unable to be driven. the manufacturer was contacted and provided no assistance. the failure mileage was not available...*bf consumer asked the manufacturer for technical guidelines for the campaign #13n03 and was told consumer wouldn't get ...

Vehicle has hard down shifts jerking when accelerating has been in shop twice going again on 6-27-18 after about 150 miles of driving is when this occurs

Purchased car used about 3 years ago. have had very hard shifts 1-->2, but transmission was checked at time of purchase and i was told it was ok. at time of purchase car had about 30k miles on it. it now has 51k miles. shift is now extremely hard 1->2, 2->1. car got stuck and would only go in reverse last week and i ended up stuck on a ramp in a parking garage. i was unable to get the car to drive formward and it took 5-6 tries. car was then stuck in first gear for about 2 miles, then suddenly shifted and was normal. it has lost all forward motion at times suddenly while driving on the street, car unable to shift. now needs a new transmission with only 51k miles on the car. it has never been in an accident and is driven very lightly. extremely dangerous to have a car come out of gear (?) while driving in heavy city traffic.

No cold air in air conditioner whole motor replaced in 2014 lock on back hatch replaced broke again . the electrical radio dash broke. recall power chain wrench light on again. heating coal replaced

I was sitting at a stop light, as i accelerated to turn left, the car lost all acceleration and made a thumping noise. i put the car in park shut off the engine and it started and then accelerated. the car behind me was driving when my car stopped and he was beeping at my car. it was lucky that he was paying attention and quickly stopped as this was very unexpected as i was accelerating and not braking to clue him into stopping. on the way home i was turning left again onto another road and then was driving straight ahead and while driving the car lost all acceleration again and would not move. the engine was on and it was making a thumping noise again. the wrench light was on. it was frightening as the cars behind me were at full speed, at lease 30mph and my brake lights were not on as i was trying to accelerate and the car would not move. the cars driving at full speed had to quick go into the next lane to avoid hitting my car. it was very frightening. ...

I have a 2012 ford escape. i have had it for a year and it just started acting up. the first time this happened was sept 12, 16 while i was headed to work. while accerlerating from being in park, the throttle body/ power train light illuminates causing the car to not accelerate like it should and a lot of squeaking comes from the car. so, i have to put the car in park and turn off the egnition. once i turn it back on it goes back to driving normally. this has happened six times within 45 days.

I was driving home friday afternoon when my car suddenly started to choke down. i was not going more than 25 mph because i had just recently drove over a speed bump. i lost all power and was unable to accelerate. i cruised over to the side of the road and put my car in park. i noticed a wrench light come on and i then turned the car off. once i had someone there to follow me home, i cranked my car back up and drove very slowly the rest of the way(3 miles max) to my house. the car did take a few extra seconds to crank but seemed to do fine on the trip home. we took it to the dealership first thing the next morning and they are supposed to run a diagnostic test on it sometime today.

While driving vehicle it started making a lot of noise and vibrating a lot. checked lug nuts and found all tight. got under vehicle and found the right drive shaft had come apart. have never had one fail suddenly like this. had car towed to ford dealer. upon inspection the found one of the motor mount bolts had backed all the way out, a second one had backed out a little and broke, the third remained tight but had sheared off. this allowed the engine to drop drop and destroyed the drive shaft. bought this vehicle new in 2012. bolts have never been loosened during this time. dealer has no explanation as to why they would come loose. mileage at time of failure was 85000.

I purchased my 2012 ford escape in 2012. about 2 yrs. later as i exited off a ramp of our local by-pass, the car unexpectantly accelerated without pressing on the accelerator. i was quite frightened; and, after applying the brake several times, i got the car stopped. i called our ford dealer; had the car towed; the service mechanics put it on a computer which "did not" pick up any recent malfunction. they said the car was safe to drive. the most recent calamity occurred on may 29, 2016 in the parking lot of our church. i was driving; my husband was the passenger. as i pulled my car into a parking space, i realized i needed to straighten it out. upon my observation of another car coming in to park behind me, i waited until the car was parked, put my car in reverse, and "all hell broke loose". the car fully accelerated in reverse and crashed into the parked car. fortunately there were no injuries; however, damage to the r rear of my escape, and extensive damage to the r side of the other vehicle. this incident ...

While cruising at speeds ranging from 25 to 55 mph, car will suddenly lose power, with rpms decreasing to 1200-1500. depressing accelerator has no effect for 3-5 seconds, when the car will act normally. a similar problem is noted at random times when accelerating under light throttle from a stop or when applying full power to pass another vehicle on the highway. this presents a dangerous situation when the car cannot be relied upon to perform normally. the problem has not been isolated to any specific environmental or operational conditions. the problem was worse during the first 5,000 miles, but continues less frequently (vehicle has 40,000 miles now). dealer technicians are unable to locate any faults.
