FS: 2009 Ford Escape

This is going to be a complete long shot but I figure if somebody would be truly interested I'd try and make it happen

'09 Ford Escape XLS FWD

$10,000 obo (1500 under KBB!)

Red

68k miles

Exterior: 8.5/10

interior: 8/10

Its been regularly maintained and serviced by the dealer it was bought from since day 1. Has 2 new tires on the rear wheels. It will probably need new brake pads come summer time

The BAD: its not accelerating but I think it just needs a new throttle body which should be fixed by the end of this week.

EDIT: It seems the computer malfunctioned into limp mode, with a reset of the computer it runs like new again

***EDIT#2: My amatuer mechanic skills were naturally wrong. The issue was in the transaxle which leaked out half the trans fluid and has been repaired by a Ford dealer and the trans was unharmed and it is good to go***

Apparently the problem has been fixed. It was suggested to me by a mechanic friend that it could be an improper switch of the computer to limp mode as Ford has experienced this as a mildly common issue. I disconnected the battery and let the computer reset and today it's driving like the champ it's been

pics added. Sorry for the shitty quality but I snapped them quick late last night in the garage. Its a stock escape and needs a cleanup which I was planning on doing this weekend anyhow

Someone buy this thing so I don't have to trade it in!
