Equipment problem #1

Gear shifter lever goes into park but vehicle continuous rolling forward, exclamation sign comes on vehicle displays safely vehicle will not start until you shift it to drive then park and then apply handbrake.

Equipment problem #2

My husband simply shut the trunk of the car as we have a hundred times before and the rear window abruptly shattered. We were parked and stationary. We'd had snow in portland the day before but the idea that the window couldn't withstand that temperature is ridiculous. I've read online that an NHTSA investigation was launched in 2011 into these kinds of events but I do hope that something is done soon, especially since this could have been dangerous: we are thankful that our two daughters were standing clear of the car when it happened.

Equipment problem #3

I was parking my Ford Escape Hybrid while moving back and forward I notice brake paddle jerk and paddle lost braking power.
