Not reliable on starting

Buyers beware..the anti theft in the ignition tends to go out...then you're pretty much stuck with anywhere with a $125.00 to look at the problem to $1200.00 to fix a passive problem..! They should have a recall on this feature.. without dealers telling Consumers this issue...just like me.. I'm stuck with an SUV parked on the side of the road with a payment..!! Don't purchase any vehicle that has a anti theft start..after 4 months... it'll give you a huge problem that they won't fix unless you still have some type of warranty of which mine was for only three months..and no response on info on an extended warranty that I asked for..!

Good reliable car

I loved that the 4 wheel drive would kick in when needed and didn't require stopping and manually and putting in 4WD. Great gas mileage.

Great in rough terrain!!!!

I purchased a used 2010 Ford Escape Limited Edition with a lot of options and with only 78k miles. I used it a lot and it served my needs well. There is enough room for four adult passengers and none felt cramped for space. The features and a V-6 AWD vehicle, makes the winter months a breeze to get through. Acceleration is good, I really like the looks of this car. Great gas mileage on long trips too.

Best car I've ever had.

I had never heard of a Ford escape before I went to the Lenoir city dealership and a salesman recommended it. All I knew was I wanted something safe, SUV type that I can take camping (and sleep in comfortably if needed) and something good on gas. He showed me the 2010 escape and as soon as I sat in the car I fell in love with it. So we test drove it and it did great. Good acceleration and brakes, smooth ride. I also test drove some kind of jeep I can't remember which but it didn't even compare to the escape. So anyways, I bought the escape (used with around 90,000 miles on it) and it's been over 2 months now and I love it more and more everyday. It's reliable, tons of room for passengers and storage, LOVE the sync option so I don't have to touch my phone while driving. It gets great gas mileage as well. I've been uber driving and my passengers love it, especially the lights that change colors around the cup holders and feet, they think it's so cool. I feel so safe when I drive it compared to the 2007 Mazda 3 I used to have. I was hit by a drunk driver and the entire front of my car was just gone. Engine laying in the middle of the road. So that's why I wanted something bigger and safer and the escape gives me peace of mind when it comes to that. Overall, this is just a great car. I wish I had a sunroof or moon roof though but other than that no complaints from me! Runs like a champ and I drive it about 45 min to work every day and not a single problem from it.

I do not recomend it at all!!

Where do I start? Sighsss. I am driving a 2010 Ford Escape, not by choice but necessity. This vehicle is an oversized bad quality toy, flimsy to no extent, rattles everywhere, the wind noise felt in the windshield area as well as the tires rumble feeding through the floor makes the cabin comfort intolerable, to listen to the radio you have to extremely crank up the volume. When riding through a bump or a pot hole, the vehicle feel like has no shock absorbers, hard nock is felt on your sit and floor The interior space and sits makes it uncomfortable for a person of 6?2?, 200lbs like me. I feel the interior of this vehicle was designed for small to medium sized people. The 4cyl version I drive is truly gutless, I cannot wait to sell this vehicle. I do not recommend it at all.
