2017 Ford Escape consumer reviews

Wish it had a little more space in the back seat. It is a very well put together vehicle with good handling; great in the snow.

I got almost 300,000. miles on my last escape. So happy to have another one. I love how it handles in the snow. Great family car.

I wish we had spent a little more money for better quality, design, and fuel economy. The interior controls are poorly placed and too small. It also has a an "Auto Shut Off" feature that's just plain annoying.

Started out looking for a used Edge but it didn’t have as many features as an Escape Titanium so we went with a 2017 Escape. Looks sporty, great ruby red metallic color, 1.5L ecoboost has decent pick up, Apple CarPlay, pretty comfy interior, remote start, dual temp control, push-button start, power liftgate, heated front seats, rear-view camera. Chose FWD over 4WD & 1.5L instead of 2.0L for average of 3 more MPG. I think new & used car prices are ridiculous so only 4 stars for value. Hate the auto stop/start “feature”. Wish I could have found a car in my budget with 301A package but wasn’t able to & this has lots of other nice tech so I’m ok with it. It’s Certified Pre Owned so it has additional warranties. Highly recommend Fox Ford in Grand Rapids MI - great experience!

I was looking for a great deal for a great vehicle. I was not disappointed, easy access to all but I need it, light andary. Makes perfect sense for my needs. Lots of room to carry what I need small enough not to keep clean.

This is the second escape I have owned. Previously I had a 2008 limited. Just a great car. The 2017 has been somewhat of a let down. No more V6 motor. Even with the 4 cylinder Eco Boost just not there. The interior to me is not as well designed and crafted as the 08 was. Fuel mileage is better just under 25 around town for me. have been having problems with electrical and all the automatic stuff malfunctioning. I wish I had moved up the larger Explorer with a V6.

I have driven Fords for two decades or so. My first one was a Ford Taurus Wagon, next it was a Ford Explorer, and lastly a Ford Escape. And they are very dependable cars. However I'm a little sceptic in regards to the fairly new vehicles that are manufactured. I have heard from Friends who've had Ford Escapes 2015 and newer, that there were transmission issues and if they have a sunroof that would be a lot of issues with that as well. So oddly enough I enjoy the vehicle now, but I am unfortunately waiting for something to break.

This car is simply great. A great value for the price. Love using the sync 3 system. So comfortable to drive. The remote start and heated seats are the best!

Navigation and options are great. Fordpass app is great for scheduling engine starts and diagnostics. 4 cylinder turbo with auto stop is good for emissions and gas savings

Bought this vehicle used about a month ago to replace a vehicle I had totalled. It is fun to drive and has lots of space and is comfortable. Looking forward to driving it as long as I can
