1998 Ford Escort acceleration complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle would accelerate. Would start revving at stop light/sign. Manua clutch makes noise. Speed not a factor. The brakes would jerk & jiggle when applied. Had rattle in right front after repairs. Was informed that was normal.
While driving vehicle hesitated/revved, and finally accelerated, almost causing a rear end collision. Dealer could determine problem. Please provide further information.
Engine idle remains at high RPM's while changine gears. Mjs
