My 2011 ford escape limited 3.0 v6 has electric issues.
While driving the electric power steering locks up on its own then lets lose and clicks under the dash
Headlights dim and brighton on their own. The whole dash, radio, ac controls, go off.
The engine pulse up and down but never shuts down. David white and i have trouble shooted this issues so many ways. This sounds like its an electrical issue. It picks a new item to mess with every few days. Any thoughts or advice would be helpful.

My escape wont start if its sat all night. If driven everyday starts fine but hit or miss will have no power steering or dash lights or radio or windows. These happen separately or all together. If driven a long time or distance acceleration is sloppy until get past first gear. Then the headlights go out and a little later dies. Wont jumpstart until the next day and good for a little while then starts all over again
