Description of the problem | The vehicle stalled several times when i was pulling out from a stop or just after i pulled out from a stop. I took it to my dealer to have it serviced and was told that they needed to replace the throttle body. This cost me a total of 384. 08. I was told at the dealer that this has happened to other 2010 escapes at that dealerships. A quick google search lead me to see that it has happened to many others as well. There is no question that this is a safety issue as i stalled in intersections on more than one occasion. If there is a recall, i would like to make sure i am reimbursed for the expense i have paid to fix this. |
