Description of the problem	The first time it happened, we were on our way to a funeral, an hour away, driving our 2010 escape about 55 mph. Everything was fine and then the car jerked, the wrench light came on - had no acceleration, no power steering, no control. It was scary! Luckily, my husband was able to pull to the side of the road without incident. Turned the car off and said a prayer of thanks! Car started back up after a couple of minutes, although not easily. Did the same thing on our way back home. Suffice it to say, this problem continued to happen. Found out the car is going into "safe mode". My husband drives an hour to work (each way), all highway, approx. 70-75 mph and about halfway through his commute, the problem will happen. He has to get out of the way of the other drivers and find a safe spot to park. Not always an easy task on the highway. Took the car to the local ford dealership for this problem and other recall work (14s05 and 13b17). They told us they would take care of the issues. The next day, the wrench light came on, the check engine light is on and same problem still happens, although now the car drives in a lower gear and eventually you can accelerate, but not quickly. Still not safe on the highway. Found out today, dealership will look at the diagnostic code for $70 to see if there is a problem. Ridiculous!! They aren't the ones in an unsafe car!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
