• Recall 2022311 [Canada]: Powertrain
  Issue: on certain vehicles, the shift cable may detach from the transmission. This could cause the transmission not to shift gears when the shifter is moved. As a result, the transmission could be in a different gear than the gear shifter indicates. If a driver attempts to exit the vehicle while the transmission is not in park, and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle could move suddenly. Safety risk: sudden and unexpected movement of the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: ford will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the transmission shifter cable bushing and install a protective service cap. Ford advises that you should apply the parking brake each time the vehicle is parked.

Upon parking the vehicle in my driveway, the vehicle would not turn off after turning off he ignition and removing the key. All the dash lights were on as the would be normally and the engine remained running. Tired everything including in and out of gear, driving, turned key on and off several times, tired both keys. Googled and seen there had been similar issues with earlier models that resulted in a recall, but this is a 2017. Found some online suggestions and after an hour figured out where the fuel pump fuse was and removed it and the engine stopped. The dash still stayed lit up and had a warning to get engine serviced. Put key in ignition and turned to run not start position and vehicle cranked and tried to start. Could not get dash console to power down or look the doors, the horn would beep twice every time i tried to lock the doors. Ended up disconnecting the battery to kill the power to everything. Plan to take it to ford today if i can get it started again.

I had left my home about 4 arrived at mall 4:30 all was great a usual day. I push button start my suv out of nowhere all these panel warnings appeared. Engine sign, hill assistance not available, air conditioner stop working, 4 wheel fault, etc.,pictures below

I was driving along, approaching an intersection, and suddenly my car had no gears! The rpm's went sky high when i pressed on the gas but i had no drive. Thankfully i was able to coast to a turning lane and into a parking lot without incident. There had been no warning lights or funny noises and this was completely unexpected and could have caused an accident! I had to call a tow truck and the ford dealer that i took it to is now telling me the transmission needs replaced and that this is a common problem with this vehicle! And this is only 4 months after they replaced the engine that was bad! Shame on ford for not recalling this vehicle!

Purchased 2017 ford escape suv preowned with 56,948 miles. Decided on the 2.0 engine due to the many issues with the 1.6 engine. Drove for seven months and only 6,000 miles. Engine light came on, immediately took the car to an auto mechanic who performed a diagnostic test. The engine was mixing antifreeze in the oil which will lead to a catastrophe engine failure creating a dangerous safety incident. The mechanic informed us that the ford escapes have been having ongoing issues with the engines and is currently in a recall program and recommended we take it to a local ford dealer. The ford dealer diagnosis matched the auto mechanic, acknowledged the antifreeze was mixing and recommended they replace the engine. They also acknowledged ford was doing a recall to replace engines for a similar problem but not on the vehicle with our vin number. I'm a first-time car buyer who spent $21k on a car, drove it for 6,000 miles, there’s clearly a defect in the engine, the ford dealership quoted a $8,500 engine replacement but said their hands are tied since our vin is not on the recall list. Car is sitting at the dealership as we sort through this mess.

The contact's wife called the manufacturer however, the manufacturer offered no assistance. Two fellow motorists were able to assist the contact and the tire was replaced. The contact had the lug nuts replaced. The contact wrote a letter to the manufacturer however, there was no response from the manufacturer. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

My car is losing water and the 2.0 ecoboost has a habit of catching fire. Mine is still driveable but very dangerous. The car has 125000 miles in it and is 4 years old and ford has basically told me tough luck. The dealer verified the problem which is a very common issue with the 2.0 ecoboost.

In january 2021 it began with the check engine light coming on. The #2 spark plug and ignition coil were replaced by local mechanic. About a month later the check engine light came on again. Again there was an issue with the #2 spark plug. It was fixed. Another few weeks goes by and the light comes on again. I take it in and the check engine light goes off just before i drive it there. We decide to wait for it to come on again. Each time i got the sense from my mechanic that this was slightly unusual. June 2, 2021 on a cool evening, i notice the heater isn’t working. The next day the check engine light comes on. On june 5th i get a warning light that says my vehicle is overheating and to pull over to a safe spot. My kids and i pull over to a parking lot and i have to have it towed to my mechanic. Today, june 11th, the mechanic finally has a chance to look at it and discovers that coolant is leaking into the engine. He uses a borescope to show me the coolant in the engine. He then pulls technical service bulletin 19-2346 which indicates that the exact symptoms my vehicle is having has been know since at least december 2019! The result is that i need a new engine. It has just over 100,000 miles on it. The vehicle isn’t even paid for and i have to replace the engine! Other than the check engine light, there were no warnings that the coolant was low. When the check engine light came on, i did occasionally have white smoke and it chugged when running like there was a blockage. Why on an issue as serious and as expensive as this has ford not issued a recall of this engine? If i get it replaced, will the engine installed have been re-engineered to have fixed the problem? If the company has known about this issue for this long, i should have been notified of the potential problem.

On may 30, i received the engine service light that remained on constantly. I contacted ford chat since i was 300 miles from home, determined it was safe to drive home since car ran fine with no vibration or gas smell. Took to dealer on june 1. Car only has about 53k miles. June 1: dealer said a plug, wire, and distributer coil were bad, replaced it, but during test drive the car shook so badly, they recommended it not be driven and was not safe and should remain in shop. This may be an unnecessary repair costing $549 (attached), but only document received to date. June 2: tech determined must be bad fuel injection system. Parts must be order. June 7: injectors replaced. Car started and car shook so badly that the tech and dealer refused to even take it out of the shop and said it would be a danger to take out on the road. More troubleshooting would be needed since they did not know what the issue was. June 8: still unsure, but believe a total engine replacement may be needed but until further consultation with other experts and troubleshooting occurs, they will not give me a diagnosis. They continue to assert that engine issue does make the car unsafe for highway use.
