While turning into a subdivision my car registered a warning for overheating. there was no visible signs or smells of overheating. i parked the car in a friend's driveway and turned it off like the warning signal instructed me to do. upon checking, the coolant was within range and not empty. i left the car parked overnight. the next day i started the car and it immediately registered hot, and pegged out the needle. i purchased a new coolant sensor from a ford dealership but that did not change the car registering hot when the ignition was turned on. the car spent a week without being turned on and still registered hot when started. i had the car towed to hilbish ford in kannapolis, nc. they replaced a second sensor and a coolant bypass valve. the repair cost was $682.74. i have been in contact with ford where my concern has been documented and assigned case number - cas-24112659-s7n8m3. while researching possible recalls i did discover that 2013 and 2014 ford escapes had recalls for coolant issues. my escape is a 2015 and had only 35239 miles at the time of this issue. i would like ...
In july of 2018 the vehicle would stall and had to be towed twice. two different dealerships couldn't find the issue. the issue couldn't be duplicated while it was in their care. the one dealership did an install and program g10 electrical/driveability?! the vehicle didn't stall again until twice this month june 2019. it occurred as i was backing out of my driveway and i was stuck between the driveway and the road. after sitting 15 minutes it started up again...less than one week later the vehicle lost engine power while i was driving at 40mph. luckily i wasn't on a highway. i was on a rural road and i was able to use whatever momentum was left to roll to the side of the road. i had 8-10 cars behind me as the vehicle suddenly lost power. how i didn't cause an accident is still beyond my comprehension. the vehicle is currently still at the dealership. ford needs to look into this issue!!! i am not the first!!! this vehicle is a death trap!!

Whenever driving my car, it noticably takes longer than it should to shift causing my rpms to run higher than expected. for instance doing 35 i might be running at 2500-3000 rpms for about 15 to 20 seconds before shifting and causing my rpms to go down to around 1500.
The vehicle began stalling occasionally after being driven at highway speed, and then turned off and sitting for about 20 minutes. i would restart the vehicle, and after putting it in drive, it would go a few yards, then die and the fuel light would come on. restarting the vehicle usually worked, and sometimes, multiple restarts were needed. sometimes, it would start to stall while driving after restarting, and flooring the accelerator made it keep going. after a few months, this became a regular occurrence and i became afraid to drive the vehicle. then, the vehicle began stalling when it was idling, such as in a traffic jam or at a railroad crossing. repeated restarts did nothing; it kept stalling after a few seconds. the only way to get the vehicle running again was to drive it at highway speed. i took the vehicle to don davis ford in arlington, tx and their mechanic diagnosed it as a failure of the active grille shutter system, which was covered in my extended warranty.
