The first week

I bought it with 7 miles on it ...took a trip the first week ...transmission banged into 6 th gear so hard i thought it wouldn't make it home...ford keeps saying nothing wrong ...i should buy a extended warranty... I say its under warranty..fix it.... This has been going on almost 3 yrs. Still bangs in 6th ...hesitates into 3rd .....just turned 50000mi..they just keep saying its ok....yes i know..they will find the problem at 60001 mi. When warranty is off. Wouldn't recommend to my worse enemies and. I've been driving fords over 50 yrs . and was a mechanic all my life ...no more ford 4me

Most Reliable and Comfortable

This SUV has all the needs I was looking for! It has the perfect amount of room, the windows are very large to see out of (more than other SUV's I test drove), very comfortable to your shape and body, and it is up to date. The drive is so smooth and easy to maneuver. I was so shocked by how well I adapted to knowing my limits right away from my old car of five years - my 2002 Saturn. I am so extremely happy with my choice of my Ford Escape, "Pearl"!

Great

I love my car, it was a great investment. The car is just big enough to store everything, and it is safe. It also gets good gas mileage.

Much Better than I expected.

After seeing and driving the Escape, it was much better than I expected and I had good expectations. The comfort, tech and performance were very good.

Nicest car I've ever owned.

This car was everything I was looking for at a good price. It was a one owner vehicle in excellent condition.

Small SUV with big power

I bought this car new......going from an F150 to this. I wasn't sure if I would be satisfied but, three years later and I am very satisfied with the car. I has plenty of " get up and go" on the highway. And on long trips I get 28-30 MPG.

No power at all

Couldn't get out of my own way, never mind trying to get on hi-way, very little to no power while accelerating 2.0 turbo engine needs to be changed

Love mine

This car has everything i need to get myself and my dog around. Lots of room and great features. I absolutely love it. I upgraded from a 2011 chevy cruze, much more space and features in my escape
