Most comfortable compact sized SUV

This awesome SUV meets my needs. It is what I am looking for and am impressed with the modern technology it has to offer. The ride is so smooth just like 2015 Ford Escape my wife has that she loves it dearly.

First brand new vehicle I've ever owned

This was an anniversary gift for my wife, and she absolutely loves it. It's exactly what she wanted.

Awesome Experience

The vehicle is so nice. It exceeded our expectations when we started the search for a vehicle to replace our 2013 Escape. As before, we called upon Brian Rector to help us buy our new car. He is so nice. No pressure and fully knowledgeable of the vehicles he sells. A point that validates this claim is that he was able to help with an issue regarding remote starting through Ford Pass. He was the only one who knew how to restart the car after shut down from the alarm system. (I had talked to the national help line and the local Ford service department who said the only way to figure out how to restart the car was to tow the car in.) Brian guided us through the restart over the phone. It was very simple and entailed only unlocking the car and then starting. I learned a valuable lesson...don't remotely start the car while sitting in it!

great car .very roomy and comfortable .was disappointed that it had no fog lights and that I have to pay extra if I want the loading area behind seats all the way to lift gate to be flush .it is too different levels ,have to pay more to make them level .that makes no sense!!

Love the ESCAPE

This car meets all of my needs. Didn't need all the extra options but has enough to be comfortable. Really like the rustproofing, paint, glass and fabric package to keep the vehicle great looking for years to come.

Love my new "Baby"!!!!

Comfortable and easy to get in and out of. I bought middle range accessory package. I think tail gate open would have been nice. Never had a back hatch before. Love this version of heated seats. Helps my aches.
