I was driving on the highway and tried to accelerate but my rpm's dropped and the car wouldnt accelerate. i hit the gas pedal a few times and it jerked and everything went back to normal. i pulled over to a gas station to get gas, left the gas station and was at a stop light. when i tried to accelerate at the stop light my rpm's revved up for a second then dropped. wouldnt accelerate, no rpm's. got into another gas station parking lot put transmission fluid in thinking that was the issue. after putting that in and the car being off, i started it back up and put it in drive. it took off like there was no issues. got across the street and pulled into another parking lot and i loss my rpm's again and no acceleration. had to call a tow cuz after that the car wouldnt go anywhere.

Transmission went at 80k miles, extended warranty doesn't cover. no warnings only warning i got was when it was took late. no way to check transmission fluid as it is a sealed transmission. it's going to cost me $6k to get it fixed.
Current issue is head gasket overheated and blew. coolant is internally leaking into the engine. car blows out a ton of exhaust while driving and has the smell of coolant in it. i can't even drive on the highway anymore because the car overheats and limits my speed to 45 mph. sometimes i have to pull over just to let it cool down. every time the car starts up it vibrates so much that its quite annoying. sometimes the car shuts off right after i start it in the morning, right after a crazy burst of vibration. a little over a month ago i started my car and it vibrated so much and then so much oil leaked from my car, exhaust blew out dark black smog and smoke was coming from my hood. car is really loud on idle, never been in a car so loud with so much vibration all throughout the car. car constantly overheats and has no power when driving. car vibrates insanely when i'm idle at a red light. check engine light goes on and off every other day. my mechanic has done research on the car and says to get rid of it, it's ...
2 months ago, my car died in as i was exiting the interstate. transmission issues - repaired after 2 months. drove it out of town and second day being out of town engine light on. brought it back to mechanic and transmission mechanic said there was no trans code present, but following codes present p1116 and p0234. unable to drive car again until light engine light is off and this repair is out of pocket again.
We were merging into a very busy intersection and the car wouldn't move suddenly. the engine would rev, but would not move. we put the car in park, shut off the engine, started again and it would lurch forward and go for a couple hundred feet and then die again. we had cars swerving around us at high rates of speed. my wife was crying and terrified. it turns out to be the transmission. i looked online this morning and saw endless complaints about the 2014 escape but no recall.
Car was running fine when it just caught fire. no warning signs. driver lucky to be alive

I'll be driving, the it will stop and throw up the oil light, battery light and the airbag light. i took it to the ford dealership on 122nd st in portland, they said they couldn't find anything wrong because it wasn't throwing any codes. now i'm sitting on the side of the road and the error code says engine fault service now. i've had regular maintenance on the car so not sure why this is happening. cars/suvs shouldn't just stop working while you're driving them.

While driving through the city my car overheated to the point where the engine shut down it broke down. it all happened within 5-10 seconds.. i never had overheating issues with my car. i had it serviced with ford for an oil change and they topped off my fluids a week prior this accident. luckily my car broke down not too far away from the dealership so i was able to get to the dealership service quick. after 2 days later the dealership called me and told me they would need to install a coolant level sensor system kit and it would cost me $1300 plus tax. that happened on friday and i needed a weekend to think about it. over the weekend i found out that ford escape has a recall for this exact issue but my vin number is not reflecting that. upon more research about my vehicle i found out that it was assembled in the factory and on the date that the recall states it. the recall number for this issue is 17s09. my local ford in north charleston , sc says that this car should have been recalled for this issue ...
