Description of the problem | My car was overheating so i took it into the shop and they said it was the thermostat so i replaced the thermostat and it's still kept overheating so i took it back in they ran a test in the heads were blown so they had to replace the heads well from what i understand that this is a common problem with my year of vehicle and the ford escapes because there was another ford escape with the same issue and they had to replace the heads on it i feel like it should be recalled because it is a common problem and i think ford is aware of it i don't have the money to replace a head on my vehicle it's a 2014 it shouldn't even need the heads replaced it look like it belongs to |
