Description of the problem | While driving to work on i10 at 60 miles per hr in houston tx. The escape lost power and was hard to steer. I limped off the road and shut the escape down and restarted it. The escape worked fine again. This happened twice more over the next months. I am taking the escape to russell smith ford in houston tx to have them correct the problem. Please check with them on the issue as i or others could have been killed as this happened during rush hour traffic in houston. |
