Prompt recall repairs are vital to protect you and your passengers. The NHTSA data shows multiple safety-related issues for the 2020 Ford Escape — including door latch defects that can allow a door to open while driving, air bag and restraint control module problems that can delay or prevent airbag deployment, fuel system and fuel pump defects that can cause stalling or leaks, and transmission or driveshaft issues that can lead to loss of drive. Ignoring these recalls can increase the risk of injury or fire and may also affect insurance claims after an incident. At Bill Estes Ford Brownsburg, our factory-trained technicians use OEM diagnostic tools and follow Ford’s official repair procedures to ensure each recall remedy is completed correctly and documented in manufacturer records. We perform recall repairs free of charge under Ford’s recall program, and we prioritize safety — if a recall requires interim actions (for example, using the parking brake until a transmission bushing is replaced), we’ll clearly explain those steps. Protect your family and maintain compliance with safety standards by contacting our service team today to schedule service. We also publish rotating service specials to help with any non-recall maintenance recommended during your visit.
