(reported on)Escape XLT 3.2L V6
Had the brake power booster replaced due to a major air-leak around the brake-pedal shaft in the cabin. ($500.00 ) This was after the local Ford dealer ( Hoppers Crossing Melb. Australia ) had serviced the vehicle and ( although told of the air-leak ) failed to locate the problem .
I sent the vehicle back and they confirmed my finding.
I Had the Power Booster replaced at Brakes Plus ( for about $150.00 less than the Ford dealers labour charge )but when my wife drove the car home she couln't activate the cruise control.
I had the vehicle returned to Brakes Plus who passed it on to their Auto Electrician to rectify . His response was that the Speed Control Sensor failing on Ford Escapes is a "common" occurance after the battery . The price of the Speed Control Sensor is $900.00 (Aus.)plus labour ( 15 minute c/over ).
We also own a Ford Explorer XLT and find both vehicles pleasant o drive locally and on long trips but the parts price and poor life indicate that the purchase of a Ford for our next vehicle is extremely unlikely
