2017 Ford Escape

The splash shield on underneath both the driver and passenger sides are falling off the vehicle. Passenger side started last year and the driver side was yesterday 5/17/2024 it appears the plastic pieces holding to the care are failing. Have zip tied them in to place to keep them on. I have seen many reports of this happening to other 2017 ford escapes online but dosnt seem like they have found a way to fix it.

My check engine light on causing vehicle to run rough.and delay in engine performance.(transmission shifting). Ford dealer replace several Emission parts. (Warranty.) .Purge valve system. Oxygen sensors Etc. Car in shop for 12days.pick vehicle up drove 2miles check light came on again. Back to ford, Now ford wants Me to pay for needed repairs to charcoal canister, Purge Valve system. $400,00 to $ 800.00. This repair is EPA and Federal Emission Policy. Which Fotd and Dealer States no it's not. Dealer will not HELP with any assistance. Tried to explained Ford and Federal.EPA rules. Per Ford Warranty Parts statements and policy . Dealer 1st stated to me this part is under extended Ford Warranty. Hours later called Me back,Stating It's My responsibility to repair. This part is Electric vacuum operated. Prt# GV6Z9D333A Purge Control Valve (Block off switching Valve ) Which is a Hose and Solenoid Assy. The say it's a hose nothing else. I explained a hose is only a HOSE and has nothing to do with opening and closing of Emission Purge Valve .System. That is what the Solenoid is for which opens and closes Purge System from fuel tank Vapors system to charcoal canister. Please Help me in this repair clarification.

Transmission went out at about 70,000 miles. There was ZERO warning or notification with a warning light. I thought my car needed new tires as it was slow to start after stopping at a stop light. It also slipped gears. I did not know that this was the "warning" signs of a transmission going out until after I researched transmission issues w/ the FORD ESCAPE. It was a dangerous situation as it was stalled in the middle of an intersection.

Coolant intrusion into the engine, causing vehicle to overheat with the overheat alert flashing on dash. Refilling coolant before every drive and still overheating, with the coolant always being empty despite being filled daily. Consistent cylinder 1 misfire, even after mechanical inspection/replacement. Vehicle misfiring upon starting, where some instances the engine will not start for 2-3 tries. Vehicle misfiring while driving, stopped at traffic lights, and when using Auto Stop-Start feature during daily drives (traffic lights and stop signs). White smoke coming from exhaust. Engine block cracked due design of engine - defective design. 100K miles, 2nd owner.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Escape. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was restarted; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 41,400.

The Turbo Charger failed. It has since been replaced. My safety was put at risk because, I could not accelerate fast enough to get up to the required speed limit. It has been inspected by a Ford repair shop. There was only one warning: a check engine light came on while I was in route to work. The car's performance immediately deteriorated and I turned around and went back home.

Received a warning on vehicle. However when diagnostics were run through the Ford's onboard system everything came back as normal. Went to find out what code was appearing. The code stated that the spark plugs needed to be replaced. Had all four replaced, but noticed that the coolant level had dropped off suddenly without warning, no notification notice in car, and the only reason I found out was my vehicle's temperature gauge was increasing quickly. After filling it up with coolant a second time and the check engine light not resetting after the spark plugs replacement, all of a sudden white smoke and smell came out of the exhaust. Knowing something was not right, quickly shut off vehicle, and called a local Ford dealership to verify that my Ford Escape with less than 74,000 miles on it had blown a head gasket!!! Even though the 2017 - 2019 did have a recall for this exact problem it ONLY APPLIED TO THE 1.5 ENGINES AND NOT TO THE 2.0 ENGINES!!! Why is that when there are a high number of complaints for the exact similar problem as mine?
