#4 of 5 Smoke or Steam from front of 2008 Escape by kam108 Nov 05, 2007 (5:37 pm)
Has anyone else noticed ALOT of smoke or steam coming from the front of their Escape after going through a carwash? There is quite a bit of it, and I've never had this happen with other cars or suvs that I've driven. It looks like something you'd see coming out of a car that's pulled over in the summer from overheating! Also noticed this to a much lesser extent on cold mornings. It goes away after a couple of minutes. It's noticeable by other people too. I've seen many looking at it. I did call my service dept. They said it's normal!

Replying to: kam108 (Nov 05, 2007 5:37 pm) I get that too. It's "WAY" too much smoking after a carwash. It's embarressing that if the dealership doesn't fix it, I will not use the carwash again. I'll wash it by hand. I'm very dissappointed in this. I go to the dealership after X-mas. I opened the hood after a wash, The smoke is coming from the radiator area, no water hit the engine it was dry.
