Ford Escape with A Ford Cooling pump
We have a 2011 Ford Escape, 2WD Automatic. After being told by our dealer, and reading the owners manual, that we could flat-tow it, we have cooked the Transmission twice. We have been without our car...

You have been very lucky. Also we had it in for service just before we left and have it in writing that the level was correct.
It's a lease,so I don't care about. trade in value. The bigger problem is we have to go up to an Edge because the newer Escapes are not towable. I guess Ford got tired of replacing transmission !!! Edges are quite a lot bigger and more expensive. I would like get away from Ford, and go to something like a CRV, but don't think that will be an option.
What I want is what I said, has anyone had the Ford offered cooling pump installed and their experience with it? That is one of Ford's offers, on the new transmission or buy it back and get either a Focus ( to small) or the Edge, or one of the limited towable sedans. We purchased a SUV for a reason!!! Now we can't use it!!
