Escape

  • 7,000 miles
At 7000 miles the car started missfirening and wouldn't run the dealer said it was a spark plug now we are at 29000 miles less then a year later and it's missfirening again this time it happened while entering a busy street and almost caused us to get rear-ended due to the car not accelerating as expected. Also the pass front seat belt does not keep proper tension if you lean forward them sit back the seat belt will have slack in it until you mess with it to get it to go back in.
