Great suv

Really good value for the money. Mine is the 2.5 s model and handles real well. Good mileage. Interior is spacious and comfortable seats. Only complaint is 4cylinder engine could use a little more kick, but it still gets up and goes. Engine will not have the issues though like the 1.6 models do. Would highly recommend and I drove a a lot of different suvs in my search. Also, entertainment area is very functional which some complained about. I think the layout is nice.

The worst car I've ever owned

The 2013 ford escape is the worst car I've ever owned. Engine problems one right after another. The ford dealer is assuming its a bad motor but they can only tell their is an antifreeze leak but they do not know where its going. Worst car ever.

Easily maintained.

Fantastic commute car for my Wife. She loves its look and sportiness. She was the only one to drive it so the interior is in excellent condition. Only a few times did anyone else sit in it.

Best Car I've Owned

I have owned this vehicle for 3 years. I've had no issues with it. Inexpensive to maintain. I doubted Ford reliability in the past, usually vouching for Toyota and Honda. But I had a really good experience with the Ford Escape 2013.

Nice car

I have only had the car for a week but have been enjoying it. Have not found any problems with it so far, except phone constantly disconnecting. I have to research to see if I can figure it out.

Piece of CRAP

I purchased a USED 2013 Ford Escape 1.6l ECO Engine . Have issues with Overheating, losing coolant, Engine Shutdown. Ford will not stand behind the recall that should have been recalled and recalled and replaced. I will never buy FORD EVER EVER Again!
