2019 Ford Escape Vehicle speed control Problems

“I submitted this complaint on 3/08/2020. The problem was resolved when the Ford dealership where I had my car towed inspected the car. They found that I had installed a weathertech floor mat in the drivers side and had overlapped the leading edge of the mat over the accelerator pedal. I had snapped the mat firmly in place so that it was pressing down on the accelerator pedal. The problem was resolved when the floor mat was removed and installed properly.”

“Car accelerated from 25 to 75 MPH without my foot being on accelerator. Cruise control was off. Subsequently, stopped and turned off vehicle. Restarted and vehicle would accelerate from any speed when I took my foot off the accelerator. I had to control my speed on a winding, narrow, road with no shoulders. I could only control the speed of the car by riding the brakes. The brakes overheated. When I came to a stop the car engine continued to run at 5,000 RPM. I came to a stop, then shifted into park and the engine continued to run at 4,500 rpms. …”

The third, P0016, states the camshaft position A correlates to bank 1 and finally, P04DB, says the crankcase ventilation system in the vehicle is disconnected. From what I have read online the system that is failing is that there is an engine coolant leak. I am fine providing the car for inspection upon request. …”

“Car operated fine until it suddenly started running rough, then lost power/accelleration while driving down a busy state highway. Ford Dealership found what the service manager called catastropic engine failure, caused by coolant instrusion. He showed us the whole process of coolant corruption of our Ford Escape's engine -- and the engineering flaw that caused the intrusion. Service manager explained that our 2019 Ford Escape model was the Problem Child of Ford Motor Company. The loss put our daughter, alone, stranded on the side of a 55 mph 2-lane highway in a car with only 57,000 miles. …”

“The contact owns a 2019 Ford Escape. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The contact stated that the vehicle then failed to accelerate above 10 MPH. The accelerator pedal was depressed, but the vehicle failed to respond. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the intake manifold needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. Additionally, the transmission was previously replaced by the same local dealer. …”
