The contact owns a 2013 Ford Escape. The contact stated that the front passenger side seatback became loose and erroneously reclined. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (brandon Ford in brandon, fl) where it was diagnosed that the seat frame was cracked. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 38,000.

To whom it may concern, my 2013 Ford Escape is experiencing cracking in the leather of the front seat bolster. It is such a frustrating problem to have on a car that is only three years old. There is a tsb #15-0129 in reference to this apparently known problem. I just hope that if there are enough complaints maybe Ford will issue a recall and repair the problem. Thank you,

I am nor sure if this is a safety issue, but this vehicle has 3 memory seat settings. The problem is it continually looses the memory settings. I am concerned because I have brought it to Ford several times and they can't find a problem. I am not sure if this thing can reset, move or do something else as I am driving. My vehicle is just now out of warranty, but this problem started several months ago and has been brought to Ford's attention while still in warranty. To clarify, I am a big Ford fan, I love this vehicle and the Ford dealership I frequent is very professional and treats me with the utmost respect.

Very disappointed by the design. Wheel well are extremely difficult to remove ice and slush they are too small and can't remove debris. Wipers in the front is not the greatest. Loses contact on windshield have a heard time seeing where I am going. Terrible wipers when purchased new wipers required. Engine having really odd noise and sluggish. I supposed they replaced the injectors. Had some torque but sounds like timing chain loose or lifters issue. Seats are not comfortable in the rear. Not enough cushion. Windows barely went up and down. Lots of give... too much replaced front window motors.
