1 Wiring problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

While driving a local interstate between 60 and 70 mph, our newly purchased (3,000 miles) 2019 Ford Escape sel sport completely shut down without warning in heavy traffic. Luckily, my wife was able to coast to the nearest exit and pull off the road while traffic was whizzing by us at breakneck speed. Turns out that part of the wiring harness had either loosened on its own or was never properly secured from the factory. So, the serpentine belt managed to clip this wiring harness which, in turn, pulled the harness from its socket while starting to gradually shred the serpentine belt. Instantaneous loss of power without warning created a very serious and dangerous situation. Ford needs to issue a service bulletin and/or issue a recall ASAP since it would only take one other incident similar to this before someone is seriously injured, or worse.
