Fuel pump cracked (part #pfs534) in 2010 ford escape hybrid 2.5l engine similar to recall on other ford escapes with 3.0l engine. Cracked fuel pump caused vapor leak engine light. Vehicle would still operate but strong fuel smell was coming from the fuel tank area and within the vehicle. I was surprised that the recall only impacted 3.0l engine fuel pump and not other ford escapes, especially when it seems like they…

While driving in a variety of circumstances, (in town at stoplight and accelerating on highway) my 2010 ford escape will just shut off. No warning, just dies. I have been to 4 mechanics including one at a ford dealer just today. No codes show, so every time i am basically told that they "can't duplicate issue" and i am sent on my way with no remedy for what is a very dangerous malfunction. I just called ford and…

We have have had the vehicle inspected and reviewed by mechanics, who come back with one issue, the flex fuel set up. So we ordered and replaced the flex fuel pipe 2 times now. The engine light still continues to pop back on after a couple of days go by. The car shutting off while driving is a safety issue. This vehicle was…

The "check fuel fill inlet" came on a couple of miles after filling gas and stayed on. After a few more miles, the engine light came on and stayed on ever since. I have had the same problem 4 months ago, but my mechanic said it is a malfunction in the computer so we replaced the computer. But the problem came back. I have looked online for solutions and it seems many other ford escape users have had the same problem.
