While doing the last several services on my Escape, I've noticed the front cradle/crossmember severely rusted, but not rusted through. On this last service, (10/22/19) I noticed two spots rusted through, very similar to the recall on the previous body Escapes.

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).
