I paid $100 at the dealership for a diagnostic and was told it would cost $1000 to replace the instrument panel.

I did check for recalls and it shows none at this time

My 2014 Ford is leaking engine coolant into my engine as well as oil. Which is causing my car to decrease in acceleration and has caused my car to stall on city street. I took my car to a Ford dealership and they made it worst by not recognizing that this was a problem concerning a recall on Ford and refuses to fix my car.

Vehicle caught fire somewhere in the engine due to a recall issue (overheating of the engine cylinder head, etc.). Ford metro motors at #405 estate annas retreat, St. Thomas, vi 00802 did not and won't fix the vehicle without payment from me as the vehicle owner. The vehicle has been at that establishment since June 2019.

While car is in motion our 2014 Ford Escape stalls. We turn the key off, turn it back in and it will sometimes run for a bit before stalling again and sometimes stall immediately. Currently this has happened on city streets and parking lots. Once while turning. Others going straight. Luckily we have not had this happen on the interstate yet.

Get a "engine fault service now" notification on dash when I start the car - if I drive with that notice up on the dash my car sputters. Had it ran through the computer and it lines up exactly with recall: NHTSA campaign id number 14V495000. But, my VIN is not covered.

Coolant issues similar to those included in the part 573 safety recall 17V-209, though my vehicle was manufactured a few weeks later and not included in that recall, as well as electrical issues that were similar to other recalls that didn't include my VIN. In June 2019, it started with the vehicle not turning on or shifting out of park intermittently.. work was performed and then a week later P0303 cylinder misfire.. again work was completed, the code came back, and now Ford is recommending replacing the engine but will not cover the costs due to being 5 years and in excess of 60K miles. Took for 2nd opinion and ran out of coolant and overheated less than 5 miles away from Ford dealership, even though they just replaced the coolant overflow tank and filled it.. continues need coolant every few miles. Seems crazy that a vehicle that stayed on top of routine maintenance and has not been involved in an accident or excessive conditions would need a new engine at less than 94K miles and is the consumer's responsibility to foot the bill. I've already spent almost $3K on this issue and Ford verbally told me just the engine would be around $7-8K without labor. They also had their sales department call me and offer to "take a couple hundred off a new vehicle" for my current one. Very disheartening to hear that when I've taken care of the vehicle as the sole owner, less a few recommended tire rotations.
