2014 Escape 48.7k, codeP0106, under warrenty?

Question

will run rough, service warning comes on, turn off, restart problem goes away for awhile

Answer 1

This might not be, what Ford did was produce a TSB for this concern, the problem that you have is a electrical wiring concern. what they will do is repair the signal wire with a splice. When a car or truck is built Robots build it. so in return there is a inherit problem that is associated with that particular model. You would think that they would produce a Recall for it, Due to the other problem that is encountered such as the fuel pump recall replacement and the ECM reprogram recall, this code condition P0106 was allowed to be the customer responsibility. Here a small article for the TSB for P0106

ISSUE
Some 2013-2014 Escape vehicles equipped with 1.6L or 2.0L Gasoline Turbocharged Direct Injection (GTDI) engines and built on or before 10/24/2013 may exhibit difficult to start, runs rough, crank no-start, lack of power, loss of RPM or hesitation concerns with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0106 and/or P0236. An Engine Fault Service Engine Now message may also be displayed without any DTCs in self test. These conditions may be caused by a wiring concern in the signal return splices.
