The check engine light came on ,so we took it to satelite Ford dealer and they could not find problem, week later light came on again so we took the vehicle to woody anderson Ford where it was purchased and now they say the engine needs replaced! after doing some on line research on line it looks as if Ford has a problem child on their hands. They also have issues with the tranny in 2014 -2018, this Escape only has 20000 miles on it now. Whats going to happen once the mfg. Warranty runs out ? are there any recourse actions that we can take. The Escape is a great car overall ,we own 2- 2017;s now. We are now concerned about future cost associated with this vehicle, especially since we own 2 the same year!.

It started our as the occasional misfire and then the check engine light came on. I took it in to a local meineke where they said 1 of the coils (I believe coil 2) needed to be replaced. I also replaced all 4 plugs at that time as well. Maybe a month later it started misfiring again with the check engine light back on. I took it back to the shop and they said it showed the same coil as needing to be replaced. They recommend I take it to Ford for better diagnosis where they tell me I now need a new engine for upwards of 6 thousand dollars. . . See pictures for Fords description.

Tl the contact owns a 2017 Ford Escape. The contact stated while driving 65 mph, there was a misfire in the engine. The check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the coolant level was low and that coolant had entered into the engine. The vehicle was taken to mullahey Ford (330 traffic way, arroyo grande, CA 93420, (805) 481-3673) to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced.

I bought this car 1 year ago with 52k miles on it. Last month the check engine light started blinking at 62k miles. Mechanic diagnosed it as code p0302, piston #2 compression at 90 psi, all others performing at 190 psi. He contacted Ford who informed him of TSB pertaining to engine failure. The list of parts required for repair is 6 pages long and most parts are on back order. I contacted Ford to request reimbursement for what they know is either a faulty engine design or faulty manufacturing but they refused to help. They did offer to sell me an extended service warranty which would not cover this repair. This is unacceptable. Ford needs to be held accountable for selling what they know to be a ticking time bomb.

Check engine light came on when starting. Took to shop, determined engine problem Ford was aware of but had to take it to a Ford dealer to be "officially diagnosed". Technical service bulletin was issued by Ford but no recall. Told I need a new engine, $7200 in a vehicle less than 3 years old. No financial assistance available from Ford.

Purchased the 2017 Ford Escape from hertz car sales Feb 2019. It was under 50,000 miles at the time. Mileage now is around 58,000. The first few months did not have a problem, then going into summer, the car would occasionally have a rough idling start. Mind you at the time, my husband and I used it mainly to commute to work(20mins to get to work) and back with the grocery trips to the store occasionally. I'd say starting June around that month when the engine was started, sometimes a rough idling would happen and then the check engine light would come on too. The ac stopped working around this time frame and still does not work as of 9/5. It will not blow out cold ac but just regular temp air. In August we visited my husband's parents down in socal, and got it checked out by an autozone technician and a local mechanic on separate visits. Autozone concluded it was cylinder misfire. Local mechanic concluded it was the codes that needed reprogramming because when they scanned it, different codes would pop up and that was causing the ac to shut off. To this day still when the car is turned on, the check engine light would pop up and stay on for days at a time. Other days, it would be off. Today 9/5 there is no rough idling. Going to my Ford appt 9/6/19 to get it checked out. A Ford representative called my husband today confirming the appt and recommended us to trade in our vehicle. I read other complaints on this website before writing this complaint, and others have stated Ford has a service bulletin announcement out about this type of issue. After reading that, I opened another tab, looked at their website and they only have information regarding the takata airbags and found nothing on service bulletin announcements regarding this type of issue. I could not find it, so there is no page dedicated to it. I'm starting to believe it should be also mandated as a recall.

Tl-the contact owns a 2017 Ford Escape. The contact stated that on several occasions the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the spark plug on cylinder number (3) three needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the spark plug was replaced twice however, the failure recurred. Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer were contacted or notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000. Ah.

When pulling out onto a busy highway, the check engine light and safety information notification popped up stating the engine was at an unsafe temperature and to safely park right away. The engine then began to stutter and shut down within seconds. The car had just been started only minutes before and the engine temperature was not hot. We added coolant to the "max" and the car cranked up and ran okay. The next morning, upon starting the car the safety notification popped up in the dashboard immediately and the engine did the same thing. After research and speaking with our mechanic, we believe the coolant temperature sensor is bad.

At 26,000 miles check engine light came on. I took vehicle into dealer and was told they had to do some testing. The dealer told me 3 days later that a new block had to be back ordered as it was cracked from engine coolant getting into the combustion chamber. I waited 40 days for this to come in and then was told a head gasket was was on back order. The dealer said Ford had a service bulliten for this fix. I have the car back and wasn't offered a full warrenty. How can I be sure this wont happen again. I had correspondence with 2 separate dealers and both said they have seen many with this same problem.

I traded in my 2007 Ford fusion for a 2017 Ford Escape se over 5 weeks ago. I have been having issues ever since. The first few days the check engine light came on. I showed this to the dealer and they had me drop it off on a Saturday and they fixed the problem that Monday. The issue was a fuel sensor. I also noticed the wipers were making a lot of noise and we have been having a lot of rain. The wipers would stutter quite a bit. I took it to the dealer and couple of times and they finally fixed. They said it was a known issue. I also noticed I would get a low tire message. I took it to them the first time and they put air in the tire. I received the message the second time and put air in the tire. I received the same message a few days ago, I took the car back to the dealer and they told me I had 2 nails in the tire and tried to sell me a tire. Needless to say I wasn't happy. I told them to plug the tire and I left. All these issues with 5 weeks of having this car. Unbelievable.

When accelerating on the highway my vehicle started shaking uncontrollably. It felt like the engine was failing. I was unable to accelerate without it shaking. I could maintain a speed of about 50mph without the shaking. I thought maybe the air conditioning had malfunctioned and was taking too much power from the engine so I turned it off, but that didn't help the issue. My check engine light was blinking on and off. It was very scary. Its happened twice. But there was no indication on my app that anything happened except for a misfire? either way very scary on the highway when you're with your 3 year old.

While driving 40 mph in the city, I felt a jolt, engine was still running, but had zero gas pedal response. Rpm slowly bled off as I was able to coast into a parking lot while dodging through traffic. When the jolt was felt, a "check manual" message appeared on the driver's information screen. No other messages or check engine light came on. I shut down the vehicle and re-started it and I was able to drive normal again. I then had it towed to Ford. They checked and found no codes. Checked electronic throttle body, test drove it, and could not replicate the failure.

A rodent chewed on the cables to my turbo sensor plus started chewing on my oil pan cover. I had to replace my turbo sensor cable because my check engine light was on and lose power of my turbo. Which cost me over 500. 00 in repairs on a vehicle less then 6months old.
