2024 Ford Escape

I have a loss of power when accelerating on my 2024 Ford Escape ST Line. This problem isn't all the time, I've noticed when I either fuel or driving off a hill of a driveway, similar to a restaurant hill and when proceeding to drive the vehicle will suddenly stop while I'm accelerating. When I take my foot off the accelerator then tap on the accelerator again, then it drives. This problem happens when driving in traffic. There's also a egg/sulfur smell while I'm driving on the expressway. Like it's misfiring. My frontend also rumble's when I' come to a stop.

Two weeks ago I noticed a crack on my windshield that had creeped up from the inside. This is a brand new Ford Escape purchased 8 months ago that I barely use because I work from home. I took the car to Mossy Ford in San Diego where several workers took an object to the bottom portion of the windshield. I was then instructed to file a report with Ford's customer service, who did nothing for a week. I was then instructed to return to Mossy Ford for a 'pen test' which I did yesterday, April 9. You can rub your fingers along the crack on the outside pane and feel nothing. They allege that a dot at the bottom of the windshield created the crack. There are a number of reports on the Internet pertaining to cracks in the windshield - suggesting installation problems and/or quality of glass. Not only will Ford not replace at their cost, I am fearful for my life with this car.

Not sure if there's a fuel problem or what it could be, but my vehicle pause on the first take off. It doesn't happen all the time, but soon as I fuel my vehicle and proceeding to drive off I'm accelerating in traffic and the vehicle will stop, pause as if I'm braking, vehicle is still running, everything I still on, it just pause while accelerating ONLY on my first initial takeoff. I continue to try and accelerate, and then it will proceed to drive. Driving on the expressway, every now & then it has a egg sulfur smell..With NO codes reading. Service department will not fix unless they can read a potential code, or if they can catch the problem. However, the problem doesn't happen all the time. It's like having a tooth ache, & soon as you go to a dentist, the pain isn't there... The egg/sulfur smell doesn't always smell, it's like you drive it awhile, get on the expressway & you "MIGHT" discover the smell.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford Escape. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated, and a message "Belt Monitor Service Required" was displayed. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed because the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced Customer Satisfaction Program: 24N08; as a possible cause for the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 118,000.

While driving with the adaptive cruise control, the vehicle displayed a hazard warning and beeping to take control of the vehicle. Then multiple other warnings followed including Pre-collision assist not available, check parking sensors, blind spot system fault, cross-traffic system fault, and Front camera fault service required. These messages would go away after turning the vehicle off, but would come back between 30 or 40 miles into a drive. Then in the past 2 days they stayed on as soon as it was started. No cruise control, no blind spot detection, and lights and warnings have been constant on my dash. I took it to the Ford dealership and they did not have any recalls on the vehicle. They said that they reset the IPMA and did a IPMA alignment. They test drove for 6 miles and all of the warnings came back on. They advised that another software update is coming in April. They reset the IPMA again and said that when it comes back on to contact them after the new update comes. I called Ford Warranty Customer Service and they advised that the vehicle is still under warranty and to take it to a Ford dealership. I told them that I did that and that the dealership is unsure of the problem and guessed that the upcoming update could fix it. I told them that I'm driving a vehicle right now that the dealership fully expects will go into a fault again while driving. I also raised concern that I drive a lot of miles and my warranty could expire before they have a confirmed repair for this problem. The reply was to take it to a Ford dealership.

The car would act like it would die or cut off after idling for a while at a drive thru or school pick up. Took the car twice to the dealership they couldn't replicate it. Then the car died and shut off in the middle of a busy intersection at a red light. I was nearly hit head on and rear ended. I got the car started and out of the way and I had it towed to the dealership. The cars check engine light was on. It had never shut off before or had the engine light come on until then. It said crank shaft sensor and the PCM weren't allowing proper engine control. And the dealership has had it sense then. Bought the car in August 2024 and January 2025 the dealership has had my car. It is now march 2025. I have invoices. They say it's fixed every time I would pick the vehicle up and it never is.

On dashboard, states: Regain Control, Bind Spot System Fault, Cross-Traffic System Fault, Front Camera Fault Service Required, Pre-Collision Assist Not Available. We have a [XXX] in the car and the added safety features to assist while driving are faulty. Ford knows it is an issue but has not been able to fix it. Taken it in twice for a system wipe but it reappears within a day. Spoke with Ford Customer service to begin a claim. We purchased the vehicle in June 2024 and started in July 2024. Was told a fix would be March 2025, now they said May 2025. Keeps getting pushed out because they cannot fix the issue. Warning lights on dashboard on at all times.

My 2024 Ford Scape is vibrating shaking to bad on driving at any speed, as well turn off in middle of road after I stoped. I had brought to the dealer shop unssuccessfull because they dont want take care of my car, they said it was caused because I did not let the car get warm enought, but I let the car on 20 min before drive. My car have only 3,500 miles only.
