So my Escape decided to surprise me with a bright red triangle master warning light today. 😅 From what I’ve read, the master warning light can indicate a variety of issues, but the thing is, the car seems to be running just fine! I already checked the basics like oil levels, tire pressure, and brake fluid, but nothing seems off.
Does anyone know what else could trigger this light? Could it be something like a sensor malfunction or something bigger like an electrical issue? I’ve seen some people mention battery or alternator problems, but I’d hate to jump to conclusions. I don’t want to rush to the dealer if it’s something simple I can fix myself. Maybe it's something I’m overlooking? Has anyone dealt with this? Trying not to freak out, but driving around with that red triangle staring at me isn’t exactly calming!
