| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My family purchased two brand new 95 and 96 ford escorts in 96. starting a few weeks ago, the 95 ford escort started smelling of gas. it was noted that on the gas filler assembly, between the metal filler tube and the metal gas tank, the rubber tubing was cracked and gas was spread on the tank and also when the car was moved, there was gas on the driveway. we contacted ford and they said it wasn't under warranty because it was more than 3 years and 36,000 miles and said there were no recalls for this. we also looked under our 96 ford escort and though there was no leak, it has cracking as well. if you could look into this, we'd appreciate it. *ph |
