What happened with your starting issue? Did you eventually take it to Ford to have it repaired? Were you able to determine what was done to resolve the issue?
I have a friend with a very similar issue. She has gotten the diagnoses of it being a 'cold start' (whatever that is) to a fuel issue. This past weekend I tried to help her start her 01 Escape, but it seemed that something was preventing it from starting. After cranking, and seeming it was going to start, the whole car would jolt as the engine refused to start.
Thanks for any info you have!
