Description of the problem	Failure at 80,000 miles, however the engine was replaced with a new engine at 76,000 due to problems from the coolant recall; this time the vehicle would stall when coming to a stop or while driving. Computer screen would show "system shutting down"; vehicle would go into "limp" mode, reduce speed and car would shut off without notice. Vehicle was towed in after issue occuring 4x in a 2 mile drive. Vehicle was towed in. Advised by the dealership that they could not duplicate the problem. After 30 days they returned the car with 75 miles test driven and showed that the tech reset the computer module prior to duplicating the issue. The service manager had me "reset" the vehicle by driving it. While driving 55mph the issue reoccurred at 100 miles after the system reset. The vehicle would not restart and was towed into the dealership. After a week they were able to duplicate "some" but not all of the issues. After speaking with the general manager of the dealership they decided to purchase the vehicle back by paying off the existing loan in exchange for purchasing a 2018 ford escape.
