Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2010-2012 Ford Escape vehicles manufactured February 26, 2009, to April 29, 2012, and 2010-2011 Mercury Mariner vehicles manufactured February 25, 2009, to December 12, 2010. On vehicles with a 3.0L engine, the Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) may crack, causing a fuel leak.
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the FDM flange with one that has a redesigned fuel supply port, free of charge. Remedy parts are currently unavailable. Interim notices were mailed to owners on December 13, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 16S41.

Suspension, front, wheel bearingJun 3, 2015
The Timken Company (Timken) is recalling certain aftermarket front wheel bearings, part number 510072, sold from January 22, 2015, to May 21, 2015, to be used as service parts on 2001-2012 Ford Escape, 2001-2011 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2011 Mercury Mariner vehicles. The affected wheel bearings have incorrect dimensions of a 42mm bore, 76mm outer dimension, and 39mm width, instead of a 42mm bore, 78mm outer dimension and a 45mm width.
Use of an incorrectly sized wheel bearing can adversely affect the braking and steering of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Timken has begun notifying distributors who will offer purchasers replacement wheel bearings, free of charge. The recall began on May 21, 2015. Owners may contact Timken customer service at 1-866-984-6536.

Steering, electric power assist systemMay 29, 2014
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain model year 2008-2011 Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner vehicles manufactured August 18, 2006, through September 11, 2010. The affected vehicles have a steering torque sensor that may not be able to properly detect driver steering input. As a result, the system could remove the Electric Power Steering (EPS) assist.
If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power steering control module (PSCM) and the instrument cluster module, free of charge. If a vehicle shows a history of a loss of the torque sensor signal or fault codes relating to the PSCM when the vehicle is brought in for the recall remedy, the affected components will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on July 18, 2014. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-800-392-3673. Ford's number for this recall is 14S05.

ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS HAVE BEEN PERSISTENTLY COMING ON SINCE AUG. 2019. THE SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON, WHILE DRIVING, I HAVE NO CLUE HOW FAST I'M GOING??? I CAN NO LONGER START THE CAR WITHOUT HAVING TO PUSH THE THOB'S SECURITY LOCK BUTTONS TO LOCK/UNLOCK FOR IT TO START. I TOOK IT TO MY AUTO MECHANIC AT SAM'S AUTO IN WATERFORD, WHO THOUGHT HE FIXED IT NO PROBLEM, BUT I DROVE IT OFF HIS LOT, AND ITS STILL DOING IT. THAT WAS AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS UNTIL NOW. SAM AND TERRY THINK I COULD BE IN DANGER. I SPOKE TO MY INSURANCE AGENT WHO SAID I NEEDED TO CONTACT YOU ABOUT THE RECALLS ON THE SUV. IT'S SCARY, AND I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR SINCE 2018 WHEN I BOUGHT IT. IN FACT, I AM COPYING THIS REPORT TO MY FILES 12/08/2019, AND TO SEND TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR, AND WOULD LIKE IT REPAIRED, SO THAT I CAN TRADE IT IN, OR JUST GET RID OF IT. THANK YOU, I DID CALL YOU EARLIER THIS YEAR ABOUT THIS CAR. I HAD BEEN TOLD FOR SOMETIME BY MY FRIENDS TO CONTACT YOU ABOUT THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE MANY RECALLS.

WHILE DRIVING MY ESCAPE I LOST ALL POWER STEERING CONTROL. ERROR NOTED WAS POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT.

WHILE DRIVING IN A VARIETY OF CIRCUMSTANCES, (IN TOWN AT STOPLIGHT AND ACCELERATING ON HIGHWAY) MY 2010 FORD ESCAPE WILL JUST SHUT OFF. NO WARNING, JUST DIES. I HAVE BEEN TO 4 MECHANICS INCLUDING ONE AT A FORD DEALER JUST TODAY. NO CODES SHOW, SO EVERY TIME I AM BASICALLY TOLD THAT THEY "CAN'T DUPLICATE ISSUE" AND I AM SENT ON MY WAY WITH NO REMEDY FOR WHAT IS A VERY DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION. I JUST CALLED FORD AND STARTED A CASE NUMBER TO SEE WHAT THEY WILL DO. JUDGING FROM OTHER COMMENTS I HAVE READ ON INTERNET, I AM NOT HOPEFUL. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY A RECALL WASN'T ISSUED AND HOW I AM JUST LEARNING ABOUT THE SCOPE OF THE PROBLEM NOW-AFTER SPENDING $20K ON THIS VEHICLE.

MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING A THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. PER THE FORD DEALER IT IS ONLY COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY IF IT DOES IT DURING A TEST DRIVE BY A DEALER. THE VEHICLE IS PATENTLY UNSAFE. IT SHUTS DOWN IN ALL DRIVING SITUATIONS, HIGHWAY SPEEDS, SURFACE ROAD SPEEDS, WHILE MOVING. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE. THE LOCAL DEALER - FOWLER FORD - IS NOT FOLLOWING FORD'S DIRECTIVE AND IS CHARGING ME FOR A DIAGNOSTIC WHEN FORD SAYS NOT TO. THE 2010 FORD ESCAPE IS A DEATH TRAP. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT HAS HAD MULTIPLE RECALLS FOR LESS SERIOUS ISSUES, BUT THE ONE ISSUE THAT CAN GET SOMEONE KILLED DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR A RECALL? THIS MAKES NO SENSE, I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, BUT HAVE NO CHOICE. WHY WAS FORD ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON A PART THAT FAILS RANDOMLY, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING IN TRAFFIC. IT SEEMS THAT FORD WAS GIVEN A PASS ON AN ISSUE THAT WILL GET SOMEONE KILLED.

THE THROTTLE IS MESSING UP.. IT KEEPS STOPPING AND THEN I TURN MY CAR OFF AND START IT AGAIN THEN IT WORKS. IT HAPPENED ON A BUSY STREET AND I HAD MY 3 KIDS WITH ME

WHILE I WAS DRIVING I HEARD A CLICK AND LOST MY POWER STEERING. IT CAME BACK AND THEN OFF AGAIN. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF MY IGNITION. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND RE-STARTED IT, IT AGAIN KEPT GOING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN POWER AND MANUAL STEERING WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH DOWN BACK ROADS TO MY HOME.

THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING 3 TIMES WHILE DRIVING MY DAUGHTER HAD TO PUT THE FLASHER ON AND MUSCLE THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE LAST TIME SHE WAS ALMOST HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. AT THE SAME TIME THE RADIO AND FDIM WOULD COME ON ERRATICALLY AND REALLY LOUD. TOOK THE CAR TO LARRY H MILLER FORD IN SLC UTAH THEY CHARGED HER 90.00 WHICH SHE NEVER AGREED TO, REPROGRAMMED THE CAR ONLY AND REPLACED NO PARTS. LARRY MILLER FORD SENT MY DAUGHTER OUT WITH A CAR THAT IS NOT SAFE, THE RADIO AND FDIM STILL GO OFF AND ON IN A STARTLING FASHION AND KNOWING THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL MOST LIKELY OCCUR AGAIN. I JUST WANT THE CAR FIXED SO ALL SAFETY HAZARDS ARE ADDRESSED.

PCM HAS WATER DAMAGE DUE TO PLACEMENT UNDER THE HOOD. WHEN THE HOOD IS OPENED WATER RUNS DOWN DIRECTLY ONTO THE UNIT AND INTO THE WIRING. THE REPEATED WATER EXPOSURE HAS CAUSED THE UNIT TO FAULT. THIS WATER INTRUSION CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO FAIL TO START INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN TURNING THE IGNITION, THE VEHICLE WILL FAIL TO ENGAGE THE STARTER; HOWEVER, HEADLIGHTS, RADIO ARE FUNCTIONAL. INTERMITTENTLY WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ILLUMINATE AND THE TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER WILL STOP READING SPEED AND RMPS, RESETTING TO ZERO. WHEN THIS OCCURS IT NOT IMPAIR OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. ADDITIONALLY, THE STEERING TORQUE SENSOR IS FAILING. INTERMITTENTLY, THE VEHICLE WILL DISPLAY "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE" ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. WHEN THIS OCCURS, TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY WILL TEMPORARILY RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

WATER IS LEAKING DOWN THE INSIDE OF MY BACK LIFTGATE DUE TO A POOR SEAL AROUND THE BACK WINDOW. THE WATER IS SLOWLY LEAKING DOWN THE LIFTGATE GLASS AND INTO THE BODY, EFFECTING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE MOTOR THAT OPENS THE TRUNK. IN SHORT, THE TRUNK BUTTON ATTEMPTS TO OPEN BUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILS TO SEND A PROPER SIGNAL TO THE MOTOR TO OPEN THE DOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN I FIRST DISCOVERED THE ISSUE. I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH AND THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO A LOT OF FORD ESCAPES FROM 2008-2012. FORD TECHNICIANS HAVE EVEN MADE YOUTUBE VIDEOS EXPLAINING HOW AND WHY THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF ESCAPE MODELS. IT ALL STARTS WITH A POOR SEAL SURROUNDING THE BACK WINDOW, LEADING TO MORE PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD DUE TO THE ISSUE.

WHEN YOU TURN ON THE KEY TO START THE CAR, THE LIGHT COME ON, IT DINGS, ALL THAT HAPPENS, BUT NOTHING HAPPENS TO MAKE IT CRANK/START,. ITS LIKE THERE IS NO BATTERY BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS LIGHTING UP AND DINGING, I HAVE TO REPEAT THIS 3 OR 4 TIMES FOR IT TO FINALLY START.

THE ELECTRIC ASSIST STEERING SEIZED UP WHILST CAR WAS IN MOTION AND ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK. THE CAR HAS INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS AND WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. THIS HAPPENED ALL AT ONCE WITH VERY LITTLE WARNING AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A VEHICLE CRASH WITH MY 74 YEAR OLD SICKLY MOTHER AT THE WHEEL. AN ASCE CERTIFIED MASTER MECHANIC I TRUST INSPECTED IT AFTER THE FACT AND ADVISED I TAKE THE CAR OFF THE ROAD AND SEARCH FOR A FACTORY RECALL BECAUSE HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN WITH NORMAL WEAR. BE WARNED FORD ESCAPE OWNERS. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL AT HIGH SPEEDS DURING A TURNING MANEUVER. MY MOTHER WAS DRIVING LOCALLY AND AT SPEEDS UNDER 50 MPH

THE ANTI-THEFT SIGNAL KEEPS COMING ON IN MY CAR. WHEN I AM MOVING AND NOT MOVING ALL THE WARNING IN MY CAR COMES ON. THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO, THE GAS GAGE GOES TO EMPTY, ETC WITH ALL THE OTHER WARNING LIGHTS. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF SUDDEN EVERY SINGLE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY GOT OFF THE NEXT EXIT AND PARKED AT A GAS STATION. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, BUT IT WOULD NOT START FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. I FINALLY GOT IT TO START AND DROVE QUICKLY TO WORK. I TOOK THE CAR THAT AFTERNOON TO FORD SERVICE. THEY SAID IT WAS MY IGNITION, SO THEY CHANGED THE PART AND CHARGED ME OVER $320. WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR THE NEXT MORNING, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK MY CAR TO FORD AGAIN THAT MORNING. NOW THEY TELL ME THE BOARD THAT HAD THE ELECTRICAL PARTS IS CORRODED, SO THEY CHANGED THAT AND CHARGED OVER $720. THE NEXT DAY AFTER I TOOK THE CAR HOME IT HAPPENED FOR A QUICK MOMENT, BUT THEN IT STOPPED. TODAY 10/18/17 WHICH IS 2 DAYS AFTER I PICKED MY CAR UP FROM FORD SERVICE I LET MY CAR WARM UP IN THE MORNING FOR ABOUT 10 MINS, BUT WHEN I GOT IN THE CAR ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. THIS TIME THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL AND THE ANTI-THEFT WARNING LIGHT KEPT BLINKING EACH TIME. SO I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. SO NOW I HAVE NO CAR, I'M OUT OVER $1,000 AND I HAVE TO GET A CAR RENTAL. AND FORD SERVICE CONTINUES TO CHARGE EACH TIME INCLUDING A DIAGNOSTIC TEST FOR OVER $100. I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD AN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM AND I DON'T NEED ONE. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, BUT FORD SERVICE IS NOT ABLE TO FIX THIS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO NOW. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A FORD MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND I SHOULD NOT BE CHARGED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T WANT AN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM. I WANT MY MONEY BACK. I HAVE PICTURES FOR TWO OF THE TIMES THIS HAPPENED. ALTHOUGH IT HAPPENED MORE THAN TWO TIMES.
