TRANSMISSION FOR 2010 FORD ESCAPE MANUAL
I bought this specific car because it said in the manual it could be towed. Tow truck came and said transmission was fried. I never disconnected the car because it was an over night at a campgrounds before a 4 month cross country trip.The next morning I went to take the car out of park to tow out of campgrounds and could not get the transmission out of park. We went 367 miles total and stopped after 3 hours before continuing with this Escape being towed by my motor home. Long story short the throttle body needs to be replaced.

The main issue with getting it diagnosed is that when the problem happens, it fails to store any codes.
TRANSMISSION FOR 2010 FORD ESCAPE UPDATE
Update from : Luckily the second time I brought my car in, I had a very knowledgeable service tech who knew right away it was the throttle body. Very frustrated as this is absolutely terrifying when it happens and I almost always have my young daughter in the car with me. I will be taking it in for service again but I'm sure they will tell me again that everything is fine. For the second time I was so very grateful my now 19 month old was not in the car at the time. I waited a few minutes and restarted the car in which the wrench light was off again and I was able to get home. I again had to pull over to the shoulder while semi's and cars flew past me. While driving on the expressway again going about 60 mph, I lost the ability to accelerate, began losing speed rapidly and the wrench light on the dashboard came on. WE are the victims, we have done nothing wrong but continue to pay for car payments and a rental car. In the meantime, their lawyers are charging plenty, Ford is losing Nothing. At this point, I guess this trial will go on for years. They are offering Nothing for refusing to fix our car. They are offering Nothing for 3 -1/2 years of rental cars. They are offering Nothing for medical charges. We are suing Ford and the dealer under the Ohio Lemon Law. It has sat on a dealers lot for over 4 years. Ford has refused to fix even though this was under NEW CAR warranty for only a few months. They knew right away what to fix.īut we also had a transmission problem.I believe the clutches are slipping. The dealer fixed the ignition switch right away. Doctors have said her brain hit the top of her skull causing erratic behavior and memory loss.

The force knocked her down, landed on her tail bone and hitting her skull on the pavement. The car rolled back striking my wife in the face knocking out her teeth. First, we had a situation where the key would come out in any gear.
