Sun roof spontaneously combusted outward. I brought the vehicle to the Dwight, IL Ford Dealership where I purchased it from. The service department there said that they had never seen anything like this before, and that the sun roof combusted upwards away from the car. Had I not had the cloth screen closed beneath the sunroof, the glass would have came back down on my child and I.
Two weeks ago I noticed a crack on my windshield that had creeped up from the inside. This is a brand new Ford Escape purchased 8 months ago that I barely use because I work from home. I took the car to Mossy Ford in San Diego where several workers took an object to the bottom portion of the windshield. I was then instructed to file a report with Ford's customer service, who did nothing for a week. I was then instructed to return to Mossy Ford for a 'pen test' which I did yesterday, April 9. You can rub your fingers along the crack on the outside pane and feel nothing. They allege that a dot at the bottom of the windshield created the crack. There are a number of reports on the Internet pertaining to cracks in the windshield - suggesting installation problems and/or quality of glass. Not only will Ford not replace at their cost, I am fearful for my life with this car.
My 2024 Ford Scape is vibrating shaking to bad on driving at any speed, as well turn off in middle of road after I stoped. I had brought to the dealer shop unssuccessfull because they dont want take care of my car, they said it was caused because I did not let the car get warm enought, but I let the car on 20 min before drive. My car have only 3,500 miles only.
The voice assistance button and map are not working on my car. The problem started on [XXX]. This is used to control my phone because Ohio is hands-free and I cannot use my phone while driving. The map is not working. Also. The dealer could not fix the problem and for customer care could not fix the problem. They said it would not be fixed until the end of the year. It is now 2025 and they still have not fixed the problem. They do not consider this a recall and I don't understand why.
