The 2nd new Escape I've bought, a 3rd is likely.

I gave my first escape (2013) to my daughter. She's got it up to 150k miles. Beyond regular oil change, we've only put on a new set of tires (at about 85k) and a battery. No other service needed. An second Escape (2017) is doing great as well. I'm pleased with the fuel economy and still a little performance with the 2.0L Ecoboost engine. Of course I like all the creature comforts of the Titanium model.

Comfort and economy all in one!

Extremely comfortable and easy to drive. Great visibility all around the car. Love the backup camera and the blind spot warning in the side mirrors. All that and it?s stylish too.

Nothing special

This suv is a good commuter gets me around. good gas mileage. Some early warranty problems and lots of rattles in the back end. Not the best suv. Our Equinox was way better.

Happy New Owner

I have owned Fords well over 50 years. As seniors and former RV'ers, my wife and I decided to downsize from my Ford 550 and consider a stylish SUV that was comfortable and economical to own and operate. The Ford Escape perfectly met our requirements. I am a big guy...6'3", 275 lbs, so getting in and out easily and comfort ergonomics in driver's seat were the utmost of importance. I am totally pleased with our purchase.
