I see recalls on same item for many years up to 2011, but my 2012 not included.  Many on web describing the same problem with their 2012 Ford Escape.  Only have 131,000 miles.  Has spoken to service advisors from several Ford dealerships and all have said they see this same problem all the time in 2012 Escapes.    It's a safety matter because you drive down the road and it goes out, especially when slowing down the power steering goes out, meaning the steering wheel stiffens to manual mode,  even while turning.  Many times the engine shuts off.  Then in a complete stop while on the road, turning key off/on resets the EPAS steering.  This sequence has happened several times.  Is dangerous to drive. Don't feel safe letting wife or daughter drive it.   All this same info provided to Ford dealership, and also called Ford Corporate customer service and they logged me in.   Seems a recall should be in order if it affects as many 2012's Ford Escapes as projected from basic web searches.  I need a drivable vehicle so I'll proceed to get it fixed, as it's too hazardous to drive as is.  Thank you for attention to this matter.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2012","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"ESCAPE","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
