2015 FORD ESCAPE Complaints

THE CAR DOES NOT STOP AS EFFECTIVELY AS IT SHOULD. NEVER DID A GREAT JOB BUT NOW, EVEN WITH BRAND NEW TIRES AND BRAKES, WILL STILL SKID TO A STOP.N

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH STALLING. I HAVE HAD THE MAP SENSOR REPLACED, THE PURGE VALVE SYSTEM DONE TWICE AND THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED. THIS CAR WAS BUILT IN DECEMBER 2014. I TOOK IT TO HOLMAN FORD IN TURNERSVILLE NJ AND THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY IT IS STALLING. I FEEL IT IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT THEY HAD RECALLED 2.0 ECOBOOST ESCAPES. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND I CANNOT DRIVE IT MORE THEN A FEW MILES, THEN IT DOESN'T START. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND I FEEL THIS IS PART OF THE RECALL14S17...SSM47575. HOLMAN FORD COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG AND SAID THEY WERE TALKING TO THE ENGINEERS. WHAT A JOKE I HAD TO PAY FOR THEM TO PUT ON FOR THE CODES BUT IT WASN'T EVEN CORRECT. THIS STALLING HAPPENS WHEREVER I AM DRIVING WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MILES OF THE DAY THEN I DON'T TRY TO DRIVE BECAUSE IT WILL STAHL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST YEAR AND HALL

DRIVING NORMALLY AND APPROACHED STOP SIGN. APPLIED BRAKES WITH NO STOPPING POWER. WENT THROUGH STOP SIGN AND STOPPED WITH EMERGENCY BRAKES.BRAKE FAILURE WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR INDICATION BEFORE OR AFTER INCIDENT. VACUUM PUMP AND COUPLER FAILURE. AFTER REPAIR, TURBO FAILURE 10 MINUTES AFTER.

I WAS DRIVING TO PICK UP SOME DINNER FOR ME AND MY WIFE WHEN A HUMMING NOISE CAME ON FROM THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. AS I SLOWED DOWN THE CAR SHUT OFF. THE HUMMING NOISE IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HEARD IT. NOT ONLY THAT EVERY TIME I REFUEL MY VEHICLE IT STRUGGLES TO START WHICH I HAVE TO GIVE IT GAS TO TURN OVER.

I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND IT CONTINUED TO ROLL! I COULD NOT GET THE SHIFTER TO MOVE AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER. THANK GOODNESS I WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THIS HAPPENED

I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 FORD ESCAPE DOWN THE HIGHWAY. AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GET IN TRAFFIC TO EXIT MY BRAKES WOULDN'T PRESS DOWN. TRYING FRANTICALLY AND AS HARD AS I COULD I COULDN'T GET MY BRAKES TO PRESS DOWN TO SLOW. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO DOWN SHIFT MY CAR AND USE THE E-BRAKE TO GET TO A SHOULDER AND AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I HAD A FRIEND WHO'S A MECHANIC CHECK OUT MY CAR AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS MY VACUUM PUMP FOR MY BRAKES. HE ALSO NOTED WHEN HE SAW WHAT MY CAR WAS AND THAT IT WAS AN ECO BOOST THAT THIS PROBLEM IS WHAT THEY REFER TO AS A SOCCER MOM KILLER. HE'S SEEN THIS BEFORE. WHEN THE PUMP FAILS IT SHOOTS SHRAPNEL INTO MY TURBO THEN INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING SERIOUS DAMAGE THAT WILL COST ME $5000-8000 TO FIX NOW. I HAVE SEEN OTHER FORD MODELS WITH THIS PROBLEM THAT HAVE RECALLS ALREADY BUT NOT MY SPECIFIC MAKE AN MODEL.
