general problems of the 2015 Ford Escape

My headlight are severely oxidized and are cracking. It makes it very hard to see at night. I took it to a repair shop and they could not get the headlight anywhere but from the dealer which are to expensive. I’m a student and can’t afford what they charge for new ones.

When one of my back up lights went out it shorted out the back up video camera. After replacement, found out from Ford that the wiring of the lighting is tied also into the video camera system. After replacement the camera shorts out and is not replaceable.

My transmission and electrical. . How's a vehicle made with "no dip stick"?? and my "only goes to a Ford car service center. . ????????????????????.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Escape. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the headlights became inoperable. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that neither the VIN nor the vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 15v861000 (exterior lighting). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 13,000.

The cars electrical system has failed multiple times while driving leading to no headlights , brake lights and all other electrical components. We have had vehicle serviced by multiple different mechanics including Ford dealership however problem persists shortly after repair each time. Vehicle does not display any forewarning of failure such as no check engine lights or any indication that anything is wrong. All services and inspections show nothing is wrong however vehicle service records show electrical system and battery serviced/changed multiple time due to reoccurring problem. Manufacturer says that our VIN is not included in the recall however vehicle has all same issues as recalls from may 2014 to July 2015 . Vehicle was manufactured April 04,2015. How are vehicle does not fall under any of these recalls is beyond my understanding , at this point in time vehicle does not run due to multiple mechanics being unable to pin point or fix electrical issues. Would like vehicle reinspected for any of these recalls and car fixed and safe to drive.

After auto parked overnight on 04/26/2019, in heated garage, no power to start engine, nor operate lights, radio, etc. In the next morning. No battery to power any equipment. Aaa service attendant jump started auto. Battery tested 100% power after several minutes of run time on engine. 2nd occurrence in 12 months. I was told this is called a "brain freeze" and is not uncommon for Ford product. Original battery in vehicle replaced 04/27/2019.

Driving along and the dashboard went off and on. Windows won't go up or down. No lights. Everything was flashing. Car only has 22,000 miles on it. It is also always kept in the garage. Electrical system problems. It's an sel and 6 cylinders. I was on a city street and just drove it straight to bill knight Ford. They gave me no car and I'm single so it's my only means of transportation. I am also a retired teacher and it is difficult to buy a car. I expect more out of a fairly new car.
