2005 Ford Escape Electronic stability control Problems

“My car has been stalling at red lights or whenever I am stopped stopped. It feels like my car has died and sometimes doesn't start back up for a while. I have to press hard and long on clutch. My gas peddle had been sticking in the past.”

“While driving and the car is in motion the gas pedal has locked in an idle position. This happens intermittently. Although the car is in motion suddenly there is no longer any forward momentum since the car is no longer moving forward. My only option is to coast to the side of the road. Sometimes I can turn the car off and on which seems to reset the gas pedal and then I can continue on my way. This is extremely dangerous since any one can hit me. This has happened several times”

“When the vehicle stops, engine shuts down. If I start it again it turns on just fine but everytime I stop at a light or at traffic, the engine stalls. Went to the Ford dealer and they cant tell what is happening because there is no check engine light turned on. They checked it and everything was fine, battery, oils. They say there is a recall for the throttle position sensor but the deadline for this was on january 2015. Now Ford wont repair my vehicle because it has more than 10 years old (it has less than 116,000 miles).”

“Was driving my car to work - at first if didn't want to start but cranked fine. Let it sit idle and headed to work - 1/2 to work stopped at a light where it started to shudder like it was going to stall (never had any issues before and still no warning lights). Got thru the intersection and loss all power on the busiest street in bowling green. I didn't even have enough power for my emergency blinkers. Stuck where I was was a hazard of me being hit - had it towed to mechanic thinking it was the alternator. …”

“I was traveling at a rate of speed of 70 mhr on I-95 going down south. As l was traveling I sudden had to get off the exit to get some gas as I was approaching the exit I started to slow down to come to a stop my truck stilled while the truck was still in drive mode. No lights on the dash board lite up indacating there was a problem, no check engine light came on. I then put the truck in park it started right up, but I then had to drive with one foot on the gas and the other on the brakes. …”
