I have been flat towing this vehicle for about 4-5 years. Never had a problem until this year on the return trip home from Florida. Second day out 2011 ford escape started smoking and had to have it flat bed towed to ford dealer who informed me that I needed a new transmission. They wanted $5700.00 to install new tranny. I rented a u haul trailer and hauled it home where I will try to have it fixed. Seven years old, 86986 miles, and out of warranty. What a shame.
