FORDeBay:2017 Escape

 

ISSUE:

Some 2017 Escape vehicles equipped with one touch open on the drivers window only and built on or before 29-Jul-2016 may exhibit inoperative front power windows due to an open fuse 15 in the RJB. Fuse 15 in the RJB may open if the front windows are operated at the same time and the switches are held at the stops. This may occur in colder weather due to increased current requirements of the motors.

 

ACTION:

Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
