In April of 2022 my Escape started popping out of gear, put in park it would pop out, going down the road it started popping out of drive going into park or another gear. Your recall is for this problem. I was actually on my way to stop at a Ford dealer in April 2022 and it quit pulling all together. I had to have towed to a Ford dealer. And all they couild tell me was the transmission needed to be replaced and it would be 4 months before parts would be available and cost over $5,400 to repair. They charged me $80 to tell me this after the car had been sitting on their lot for 2 weeks. I had to have it towed to my home, where it still sits unrepaired. Will this be covered under the recall since this is exactly what was happening to the transmission and I am expecting it to be covered.

Transmission went out with no warning at all while traveling down a road. It just quit pulling. Dealership stated Ford is having to redesign due to issue with current design. Does not cover this with current recall on the cable. Five at dealership with same problem at a small town dealership Had we been on a interstate and this happened we could have been killed. We were almost rear ended when it just stopped. Spoke with Ford company and they stated they do not issue recalls that it comes from NHTSA. PLEASE don't wait until fatalities happen to force this recall. If they know it is a design issue why want they correct

Driving home from work 8/3 the transmission began to slip, RPM-??s going wild & the car stalling mid drive. When taking off from a stop the vehicles behind me often almost rear ended me because the car would only go 5-10 mph. Then all the sudden would get up to speed quickly only to slip again. Drove it the following morning to the dealership just before work. Same issues as the day before except there was a red warning to service the transmission right away due to failure. 80,000 miles seems to be when this Ford 2017 transmission is famous for going out completely. The dealer was more concerned about accepting zero liability while charging an exorbitant amount for a rental car & declaring the car out of warranty so not their issue.

On June 1, 2018 which was a Friday and the time was around 5pm. My co worker and I just finished a patient at the Boise Christian Retirement Village. I proceeded to enter the 2017 Ford Escape to start the engine so that the inside would cool down. As I exited the vehicle to speak to my co worker who was parked 2 cars down. We were discussing a situation about a coworker and she states " Danielle your car is rolling back". At that moment I did not know who was in the building the ford was heading. I ran after the ford and opened the driver side door and grabbed the steering wheel. The drivers door knocked me down and the drivers front tire ran me over starting from the foot, leg, pelvic, chest and then my head. I sustained numerous injuries. I had 5 fractured ribs, a hole in my right lung, 2 fractures on my face, several hematomas. My head was squeezed like grape and had a 15 inch laceration. I suffer everyday from this accident. I have scars and a lot of PTSD. I am currently driving the 2019 Ford Escape for my work. Now I am scared to death and dont know what to

I exited my car to take pictures of a bird. The engine was running and I thought the gearshift was in Park. I felt the car bump me and realized it had started moving. The rear tire ran over my left foot and I found myself lying face down on the road. I tried to get up but fell onto my camera. I looked to my right and saw my car moving down the road, drifting to the right towards the embankment that leads down to a canal. I managed to get up and reached the car as it was about to leave the roadway. I tried to grab the steering wheel, but the rear tire ran over my right foot, then over my left foot again. My car went down the embankment, stopping just short of flipping over in the canal. Since there was no other plausible explanation at the time, I assumed I didn-??t put the car in Park despite thinking I did. However, I-??ve puzzled over the accident almost obsessively since it occurred because when the engine is running and the gearshift is in Drive and not Park, my car moves forward at approx. 4 MPH with little to no hesitation as soon as my foot lifts off the brake pedal. I DID NOT GET OUT OF A MOVING CAR. After the recall notice, I looked at the metadata from the images taken the day of the accident and it shows my car did not begin moving until at least 23 seconds after I exited it to photograph the bird. That also indicates it was in fact in Park. I had a broken rib from falling on my camera and a broken (crushed) big toe on my left foot. Other injuries apparent then and/or in the days following were considerable swelling and pain of my left knee and foot, swelling and pain of my right knee and foot, and pain along the outside of my lower legs. I still have pain from the accident, including arthritis in my left foot, pain along my outer left leg and inner knee, and pain in my left big toe. My camera and brand-new lens were damaged. I did not have the car inspected. My safety and the safety of others are at risk until the required parts for repair are available.
