Not all 2001-2004 Ford Escapes were included in the recall for potential corrosion of the subframe leading to separation of the lower control arm and loss of vehicle control. The recall only applied to vehicles located in specific states or those manufactured in those states. Some believe that the solution offered by adding a cross brace to address the issue is insufficient and merely helps prevent accidents if the control arm mount deteriorates. The exact number of people denied recall versus those included is unclear.
