problem #2

Mar 192015

Escape

  • 70,085 miles
Went to the dealer, [xxx], to get an oil change and they told me my Maine state inspection was due. The inspection failed due to corrosion on the left front lower control arm bushing. There is a recall on earlier Escape models, but my 2011 model was not covered. It cost me around 600 dollars to repair. If earlier models had this problem why are consumers paying for the same repair on newer models? information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
