Very comfortable and reliable

Bought it couple weeks ago and definitely love it, gas mileage isn’t the best on my 2.0 Turbo charged titanium escape but love the car from the inside.

Vehicle I was looking for a second.

Car is roomy, handles, performance is great, just the right size as was not looking for a full SUV, and did want another truck, and it was so clean and maintained for an original user.

Used auto purchase.

We haven't had this vehicle for long but so far just love it! We were very impressed by the dealership and feel we purchased this at a very fair price.

Good Everyday Car

I purchased this SUV to still have space to carry cargo like my Sportrac model that was discontinued. I did not want to buy a four cylinder, but after driving it the power and acceleration of this turbo charged car impressed me. It has excellent gas mileage and the extra amenities in my Titanium model was definitely a step up.

Great handling, stylish, comfortable, roomy interi

I had an Escape a few years as a rental vehicle and loved it. I sort of knew I always wanted to buy one. I really wanted black for style and a leather interior for comfort. This car definitely fits the bill.

Same model 3 years newer

We moved up three years and 50K less miles. Although models are identical engine wise the newer 1.5 turbo lacks performance compared to the older 2.0 and is noisier. Other than that, price was fair.

Great value for the money.

Bought the car brand new in 2017 with 6 miles on it. The car has been good to me. Haven't had any major issues that resulted in dealer maintenance. I have the titanium trim level. Some pros - lots of technology for a cheap car, comfortable, reliable, 4WD works great in the snow. Some CONS... paint job is very poor! Car is a little under powered with the 1.5L ecoboost, would highly recommend going for the 2.0L ecoboost. The interior is really noisy on the highway even with brand new top rated tires. Would recommend car.

Very reliable SUV.

I've had this SUV for three years and it was great for trips and just getting around. Never had any problems with it. SUV comes with Apple and Android car play.

This is a great vehicle for ma and anyone else

I must admit, I am not usually a Ford person, but I was sold after one test drive. Responsive, stylish, easy to drive and full of great toys. Love the leather, creature comforts, electronics, technology and all that makes this SUV a cut above other vehicles.
