| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The display on my ford escape radio has stopped functioning correctly; the radio itself is functioning. after calling several repair shops, the dealer service center, and searching the internet it is very apparent this is a common occurrence in several of the oem radios and the result of a design flaw. multiple websites and discussion pages refer to this issue as being the result of an overheat condition on the display board due to proximity of the power supply and improper heat dissipation. *nm |
