Great car for the cost!

We just purchased a 2014 SE. What a great vehicle. The 1.6 liter turbo has more than enough power to tote the entire family around. The style is excellent and cargo room enough. We already love the car!

Nice step down from a truck

This is the perfect car for us, we went from a Ford F150 FX to this Ford Escape, it was a nice step down for us, but doesn't feel like we are dragging ourselves on the ground, it's nice to step into the car instead of trying to climb up as we are getting older.

I have put 78,000 miles

Absolutely no mechanical problems, gets 26 to 30 mpg. My only complaint is the driver’s seat is not as comfortable as I would like no matter what position I put it in. The visibility is great and the backup camera/alert is very useful.

Great SUV. Very versatile.

Love the fold down seats in the rear, very useful. Very comfortable driving on roads and in city driving. Replaced tires from original Continental Contacts to Michelin and great winter driving in WI happened. Very nice fuel mileage especially on country roads. Getting between 24 and up to 34. 1.6L turbo is very peppy too.

Running Great Now

The car had 114,000 when we bought it. The tranny went out that day. The dealer replaced it at no cost and the car is perfect now.
