A warning for anyone who drives a 2013 Ford Escape.

Ford says some of the SUVs have a defect in the fuel line that can cause a fire.

The automaker is recalling 11,500 of the vehicles equipped with a 1.6-liter turbo-charged engine.

The automaker says people should not drive these vehicles until the problem has been fixed.

Ford says Escape owners will be given a loaner vehicle while the issue is being fixed.
