If there is an issue with the immobilizer in the 2009 Ford Escape, you may experience various problems. One noticeable issue is with the locks, as they may not function correctly, locking and unlocking on their own and the key might have difficulty turning in the ignition. If the car starts, you may notice a lack of engine power and reduced acceleration. Replacing the system typically costs around $200 for parts and an additional $100 for labor. However, you could possibly save money by replacing it yourself since it's not too difficult to do.
