After driving the SUV for awhile, and when alternating between the brake and the gas, the SUV will lose the ability to accelerate. The SUV will give the warning of an engine fault, service now. The SUV will not be able to move forward due to the lack of a gas pedal. The SUV will start to shake and rattle. The only option a driver then has is to come to a complete stop, turn the engine off, and turn the SUV back on. All other functions of the care, the brakes, the electrical, the power steering, are still functioning. This has almost caused numerous accidents as this fault has occurred on highways, residential roads, and city streets, as well as when the SUV is moving into an intersection at stop signs and red lights.

As I am driving my SUV, and move from the brake to the gas pedal, there will be no excelleration and my car will no longer have the ability to move forward or use the gas pedal at all. The car will start to shake and the only way to correct this issue is to come to a complete stop, shut the car off, and turn the car back on. This has occurred driving down a road (both highway, residential, city streets), at a stop light, at intersections, and I have narrowly avoided accidents. This has occurred numerous times in a month.

While coasting on the freeway at approximately 70mph my Ford Escape stopped accelerating. No warning lights illuminated, simply the accelerator stopped functioning. All fluid were okay and no overheating condition was present. I was able to pull over to the shoulder, shut off the engine and after a few minutes turned the engine back on. I pressed on the accelerator and the car jerked forward. The Ford seemed to go in and out of gear. I ended up towing the vehicle home. I had the transmission serviced (new transmission fluid). Few weeks later, same thing happened again (replaced throttle body) with not check engine light or fault code ever coming on. The second time this occurred, I was almost involved in a collision due to not being able to accelerate. Car drove again on and off. Took it to a transmission shop and was advised the transmission would need to be rebuilt. Transmission was rebuilt and the Ford seems to be driving much better, shifting is still not smooth.

I have a 2014 Ford Escape 1.6L ecoboost.that is not running&Ford will not fix nor admit that there are other vehicle like mine.before the cooling recall came about my vehicle over heated 2X.I called Ford&they told me there would be a charge to find& fix the problem.few months later I was notified of the recall.I took my vehicle into hall Ford in elizabeth city nc.first they said they did not know what needed to be fixed. Then the next day they said the problem had fixed after 24 hours of having the vehicle. A year later they recalled the vehicle again for the same thing&said they did not fix the right thing. Now after 100,000 miles the vehicle shifts out of gear. For said there is no recall (but without actually looking at the vehicle) they know it is the transmission. That it will cost $5,000 for a reman transmission or $7,000 for a new one. Remind you they have not looked over the vehicle and that does not include labor. The vehicle pops out of gear after not even driving it for 5 minutes. It is the 1.6ll 6 speed automatic transmission. I asked if there were other vehicles doing the same thing and they replied no I was the first they heard of. I said well how do you know it is the trans.they replied because we know our vehicles. I asked if it could be from the car overheating 2X before they fixed the cooling issue.they said no because they know there vehicles.I have got 3 different price quotes over the past 6 months. The first quote $2500 reman plus labor then 2500 for just tran to 4-5K for reman trans not including labor.they then asked if I would like to trade in my vehicle for something that was reliable. I answered no because my car was paid for. I said no one can drive it like this. They said thats why you should buy a new car.I started doing research and found that multiple people (hundreds of thousands)have had the same problem with there vehicle as me.

While driving I noticed the car felt like it was losing power, almost like running out of gas, then a sensor went off saying 'engine fault service now', then I could really feel the car dragging. I pulled over and could hear the coolant bubbling, so I waited til it cooled down and say there wasn't much there, I noticed a leak under the coolant area. I took the car in to a local mechanic and was told I needed an engine flush, I got the flush but soon after the same issue was reoccurring. Randomly now it will just lose power and sensor will read the same thing, it's scary with your family I'm the car and your losing power. So here I am again being told I need an engine flush again within the same year. I have since replaced the reservoir being that it wasn't holding coolant. When I pour coolant in it seems like the engine is pulling it right out, I'm not sure where it's going because it's not leaking out but it's going somewhere. I called Ford and was told this was not a recall on my VIN, however I have read many complaints on this site with the same issue. I'm hoping to clear this up some I can get my vehicle in safe conditions for my family, and so no one gets hurt.

I own Ford Escape 2014 SE. I was at my Ford/Lincoln dealership for 6-month maintenance and was informed that all lug nuts of my vehicle are swollen are to be replaced at a cost of $240 + taxes. They told me that I do not have a choice as they won't be able to put tires back. I have never heard of anything like that and trusted the dealership. Frankly, I could not visualize the problem. Upon return, I have researched it and have discovered that high-quality replacement lug nuts on amazon are $20- $40 (a pack of 20). Apparently, instead of solid steel nuts, Ford sells its vehicles with lug nuts that have a steel core with chrome, aluminum, or stainless steel caps attached to improve the appearance of the visible part of the lug nuts. The caps swell, crack, and delaminate to the point where the lug nuts cannot be removed with the lug wrench provided by Ford. This leaves owners and lessees who get flat tires often stranded on the roads without the ability for even tow truck drivers to remove the swollen lug nuts. This means a tow to the shop just to have the lug nuts removed and the tire replaced. I have filed a complaint with Ford, with no luck succeeding, but will be following up with the dealer and filing a complaint with my credit card provider if not successful. There was a class-action lawsuit that was dismissed because there were not significant "enough" and the issue was dismissed.

My coolant light keeps coming on and I am having to put coolant continually and than the light will go off. On my way home on Feb 2 I was putting gas at that the gas station and the coolant leaked all over the place. I had to fill up the coolant once again. I went to the Ford place and they state that it is a heater hose issue estimated cost is $430. I noticed that my car is running rough. After reading the complaints of a 2014 Ford Escape on the coolant issue. Just wandering if this is a problem. But it had happen for some time having to put coolant in due to the light coming on. It all started a month before that.

The transmission of the car suddenly stopped working at 83000 miles with no previous issues. I was stranded unexpectedly in the middle of the street and had to exit the vehicle and turn on the hazards to avoid being hit.
