Engine light consistently comes on and stays on. Took to local ford dealer. They charge us over $200 to fix it. Light still comes on all the time. At the same time we enquirer about why the seat belt will not snap back into place properly. They told us it would cost us over $400. To fix the driver side seat belt. Absolutely ridiculous for something that should be covered and a safety concern. If we are ever in an accident and the seat belt doesn't work properly, it will definitely be the fault of ford. We will never buy ford again.
2017 Ford Escape seat belts complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
We were involved in a car accident on a highway when I was making a left turn and a car came up and hit the left front wheel well and ending up tearing off the front of the car. As our car came to a stop the driver's side seat belt kept tightening and my abdomen started to be pushed up into my diaphragm and was causing me to have problems with my breathing and so at first the belt did not want to release so pushed the release a couple of times and finally it released. Two other passengers, their seat belts did not respond the same way. If I had been unconscious would the belt have continued to close off my breathing until I expired? I do have pictures of the vehicle and roadway if you need any information from them.
