problem #1

2009May 01

Escape XLT 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,000 miles

I am outraged! I have been driving Toyota's and Hondas for the last 10 years practically trouble free. Just purchased a 2006 Ford Escape XLT attempting to help out our own economy for a change. Had it for about 3 months and 7k miles, and out of nowhere, the transmission starts to slip and not shift upon acceleration. I'm still driving it but judging by the amount of others in my situation I am anticipating the worst...complete transmission failure and a steep mechanics bill.

I guess that's what I get for trying to be patriotic. I love my country very much and it saddens me to say this but we suck at building quality reliable vehicles. How many times must this happen before Ford steps in and does the right thing?
