I maneuvered it to park, turned ignition to off. Turned back on and all seems fine on day 2 - (This vehicle does not have replaceable power steering fluid.)

Ford Escape had a history of transmission issues prior to the 2015 vehicle I purchased used in Feb 2018. I was told the rough shifting and vehicle skipping (which started gradually the winter of 2021/2022) can be a hardware, software, shutter or torque problem. Even though there are class actions suits to resolve the software and hardware problems, Ford has not provided any assistance, instead expecting me to replace the transmission at my expense quoting the highest repair price despite not having an actual diagnostic which they also expect me to pay $169.00 for.

While driving over a patched roadway,the right rear shock absorber came through the floor.upon my inspection,the right rear shock tower and wheel well were seriously rusted beyond repair.the rusted steel had been undercoated and had not appeared to be unsafe when viewed at an earlier time.this vehicle cannot be driven and has caused me a serious financial loss.
While traveling to kansas city early morning 4.24.17 at 6am I took exit 123b to merge onto i35 south from i80. When merging onto i35s I encountered a large "pot hole" or what I would call a man hole that blew both my drivers side tires and did significant damage to my suspension. I had a wdm police officer review the large hole and identified it as needing repair. A few holes later the dot was out to the area repairing. I would like someone to contact me about the damage to my vehicle.
I was driving on the expressway this morning when the rear spring broke on my 2015 ford escape. I thought that my tire blew out at first. I was able to pull the vehicle over to the side of the expressway and when a sheriff drove up beside me to ask if I was ok, I told him yes, I think my tire may have blown out and that's when he informed me that it wasn't the tire, that the spring on the back passenger side was sitting on the ground.
