Washington,DC,USA -The Car Connection, by Richard Read -Jan 12, 2012:  ... Ford Motor Company has issued another recall -- this time for the Ford Escape SUV... A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration explains that the Escape recall is due to a faulty brake master cylinder reservoir cap. In certain cases, that cap can leak brake fluid, which may drip down onto the wiring that controls the anti-lock braking system. Over time, the leak may cause corrosion of the electrical connectors, which could result in melting of the wires, or in some cases, a fire... The recall affects Ford Escapes from the 2001 and 2002 model years...  The NHTSA says that some 244,530 SUVs are included in the recall, which is related to a larger investigation of Ford Escapes and Mazda Tributes from the 2001 - 2004 model years...
