"There have now been seven recalls of the 2013 model of the Escape, a key SUV for Ford, the No. 2 U.S. auto maker. The recalls affected 161,334 Escape SUVs globally, mostly in the United States, and addressed potential leaks that could cause a fire."
"Ford is recalling the Escape SUVs from the 2013 model year equipped with 1.6-litre engines because the engine cylinder head may overheat and cause cracks that could allow oil to leak, according to documents filed with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A Ford spokeswoman said there were 13 fires reported related to this issue, but no injuries."
