Radiator problems of the 2017 Ford Escape

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Escape. The contact stated while driving 55 mph, the radiator started overheating, and the vehicle started to leak coolant. The contact added water into the radiator. The contact stated that the vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 106,000.

While driving, my check engine light went on, after I got gas, the car stalled several times before starting the car. While driving home, I got a "high temperature warning, pull over safely" also my heat was blowing cold air. After taking my car in, a tuneup was done as well as routine oil change. I was told radiator coolant was low. After a few day, the same thing happened again, took back to the mechanic and they found that the coolant is leaking but from deep inside the motor and will cost thousands of dollars to repair and I will be better off trying to trade in my car. . This is a known dangerous Ford issue and this car needs to be recalled. My car has been well maintained since I got it 2 years ago.

-purge valve solenoid replaced twice for evap systen, code 1450 occured 01/05/2021 & 05/14/2021 and -leak in radiator, unknown if blown gasket. Received message “high engine temperature stop safely” with zero radiator flued in tank occured 11/2/202. This has not been repaired but I have been aware of class action law suit related to this issue.

Engine kept losing power and bogging down. Took it to Ford and they said I needed a new engine because radiator coolant was getting into the cylinder heads for quite some time. No check engine lights came on or anything. Vehicle has been in the shop now for 4 days. They said they are waiting on the new engine and my vehicle "should" be fixed by next Friday. *fingers crossed*. This apparently has been a known issue for quite some time, according to some forums, and lawsuits are being put into place because of this serious issue with Ford Escape vehicles, ranging from the year 2013 to 2019. There needs to be a recall on these engines if this is a known issue. People can get hurt from this. . . . . Especially if no check engine light is on.

August 2020 I was told my radiator hose came off. $500 to put back on, 3 days later had to replace the lainscott turbo cylenoid $1700, 2 days later cracked flex plate, unknown amount $ due to powertrain warranty coverage. 2 weeks later told oil is leaking into valve covers. As of today oct. 3, 2020 for the last 2 weeks powertrain awd malfunction could not get an appt at Ford until oct 6. Last sat engine failure no radiator fluid. There is major malfunctioning of this car due to hurricane sally we lost a bridge here I now have to drive i10 in major traffic and I am afraid for my safety.

As driving my vehicle the engine light came on and the car ran hot. I pulled over, waiting for it to cool down, tried again and it went to hot again. Pulled into a parking lot where my fiance came and added antifreeze. Added antifreeze that leak out everywhere. I was able to drive it to len stoler Ford in owings mills, MD. The mechanic greg called and informed me I need a new radiator. I bought this car from al packer Ford in February 2017. There is no reason that I should need a new radiator less than two years after the purchase of a new car!!!.

Tl the contact owns a 2017 Ford Escape. When the vehicle was started, the check engine warning indicator illuminated. The contact opened the hood and noticed that rodents had entered the engine compartment and chewed through the hoses to the turbo charger, the radiator cap, coolant wires, intake manifold lines, and the purge solenoid. The vehicle was towed to montgomery motors (214 s main st, troy, nc 27371, (910) 572-1351) to be repaired. The contact was informed that the electrical wires were made from soy based material, which needed to be replaced. The vehicle was currently being repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 21,000.
