 Description of the problemOn approximately october 1, 2013, i began to experience stalling in my 2010 ford escape. As this happened, a wrench light came on, and the engine died. I turned it off, and it restarted and was fine for a period of time. This was repeated on several occasions. I tried to have the car repaired at the local dealership, but they were booked full for the past week, so i made an appointment for today (october 8, 2013). When i explained the problem to the dealership representative, he told me that it would probably happen again. It happened on my way home that day (last week) and also on the way in to the dealership for repairs this morning. After several hours, they called and said that my car was repaired. The billing says that their "diagnosis verified my concern, and they checked "oasis. Ssm32332. They performed etb and check failed. They found fault and replaced electronic throttle body. Retest passed." i was told that my extended warranty covered the repairs, but i was charged the $100 deductible. When i tried to check what a throttle body was, i came upon this site, which indicates this has been an ongoing problem with these vehicles, so i wonder if i should have been charged or if this should have been a recall issue. I did not drive my car for a week because i was afraid of having an accident due to the stalling situations.
