Transfer Case problems of the 2015 Ford Escape

Out of nowhere in the middle of the day vehicle refused to move from stop light, blocking the lane. Rpm went up no engagement not even a bit. Turned ignition off/on, put in drive, car moved 100 feet and stop again. I realized this isn't a fluke but serious problem, so after several tries by switching hesitantly from n to d to s was able to drive about 300 feet to closest safeway parking and call for towing. Long story short, after specialized transmission shop in the area was able to check it out and take it for test drive verdict was "its probably not that bad, something is blocking transmission filter, seems like transfer case issue, we see that a lot on awd models for these Escapes. However only after we take it out we can decide if something is broken in transmission itself " so apparently this was a good news which will cost $2500 and if something else will be found in transmission $4500. We got this car brand new from the Ford dealer and timely done all services at Ford dealership for all these years, this kind of things should not happen on well taken care vehicle off at only 75000 miles.
