Engine Knocking Noise problems of the 2006 Ford Escape

Engine lost all oil. There is no oil spot on the road no leak detected each oil change at 3k miles. I had gone to lunch, no problem, no noise, no warning lights. I got in the vehicle to go home and heard a loud banging sound. I immediately turned off the vehicle and towed it home. I checked the oil and it was gone. I had just had to have the transmission replaced and within 2 weeks the oil is just gone. There are 36 other reported incidents of oil being lost in the engine and Ford will do nothing. The cost of a replaced engine is any where from 5ooo to 9000 dollars. If you are lucky enough to have your engine quit when you are are at work like me you can get a tow. Some have reported that the engine just stopped on the highway. Here in southern California that is deadly for several people. Ford and dot need to look into this and replace these engines. The day prior to my engine issue I had checked the oil and it was full. But the next day it disappeared . Without a trace.

Driving down the freeway and my vehicle shuts off without warning. There is a loud knocking and shuttering noise like my whole engine is going to drop onto the freeway. I get to the shoulder and put it in park. As I try to start the vehicle again the engine/motor starts shaking yet again with a loud knocking noise and wont turn over. I had to get my car towed. My children were extremely scared and being on the freeway this issue is very dangerous and has been complained about multiple times.

I bought the vehicle on September 4,2015 all these problem started 1 month after. Manuel transmission gets to rough at times when being shifted into 1st gear and reverse gets stuck and hard to shift, might be part of the recall no# 15s28 the engine oil seems to use 1qt a week, recently had a changed oil but continues to use the same every week, mileage is at 132467. The air bag for passenger light continues to light up and goes off when driven. A banging noise when driven on the road at rear shock absorbers are located, the shocks are still new.

The contact owns a 2006 Ford Escape. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to be pulled into a side parking lot and upon further inspection the contact noticed there was a loud knocking noise coming from the vehicle. The contact checked the oil and there was no oil in the vehicle. The contact added oil to the engine and the vehicle was towed to a personal mechanic for diagnosis. The contact was informed that there was rod failure and the timing chain was blown. In addition, the engine would need replacing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and instructed the contact to have the vehicle towed to the dealer for diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were 60,000.
