2006-12-15, Electrical System
I PURCHASED MY 2005 FORD ESCAPE JANUARY 15, 2005. IN APRIL THAT SAME YEAR WAS THE FIRST TIME I ATTEMPTED TO START MY BRAND NEW TRUCK AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE VEHICLE WILL CRANK BUT THE ENGINE WILL NOT TURN OVER. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY 3-4 MONTHS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER REGARDING THIS PROBLEM ABOUT 4 OR 5 TIMES AND EACH TIE THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND ANY REASON THAT IT WOULD BE DOING THIS. THE LAST TWO TIMES IT HAPPENED I RECALL THAT IT HAD BEEN RAINING IN MY AREA SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS A FACTOR OR NOT BUT THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS JUST BEFORE THANKSGIVING 2006. *NM
