Great vehicle, great value

Great fuel economy. And very quick with the 2.0L ecoboost. Build quality is very good and the touch screen controls are very easy to use.

Fantastic car!

Love the car. Love the features. Smooth, quiet ride. Back up camera should be a requirement on every car. Best safety feature ever!

Best overall car we had ever owned

Overall, this vehicle is outstanding in all aspects of safety, reliability, and economical. We just traded in our 2014 Escape for a 2017 Escape and we didn't think that they could improve on it but, they did with all kinds of new gadgets for safety and economical.

I am in love with my new car

I love the car and all the features. It drives like a car and we have plenty of room for my family. The color is beautiful and the Sync 3 system works wonderfully!

Just got it but love it so far

Had a great experience with Krieger Ford. I had a 2007 Ford explorer that has been a great car. Was never really a Ford fan until I started driving the Explorer. I wanted somethingsmall and compact and I feel that is exactly what I got with the Escape. I feel I made a very good decision in buying it. Thanks

Needs better noise insulation

This is my second Escape in four years. The only improvement I would expect is better insulation from the road noise and engine compartment noise. All other comfort issues were acceptable for a vehicle of this price class. I'm pleased and would recommend the Escape.

Comfortable Affordable Crossover

Really like this car. Rides well with excellent safety features. I sit high in the seat so I can see thoroughly through the large windshield. This is my 3rd Escape. We have 2 now!!

Great SUV

We Love Love Love our Ford Escape SUV. We just got the basic S model, and were surprised at the luxury and comfort of it. Drives great, everything is right where you need it, easily accessible, and intuitive inside. Oh the back seats are super comfy and spacious, and even recline! Tons of cargo room. Outside it looks great, especially this year's lines and gorgeous Lightning Blue color! Has a surprising amount of pep for the basic engine, no turbo. Drives like a dream on the highway and has a great turning radius like a car in the city and for parking. Excellent value for the money. Thank you Cam Clark Ford Olds for helping us get into our dream car!

Very Satisfied

Great choice vehicle for me and my family. Absolutely love it and beyond comfortable when driving. My children love that they have more space with there booster chairs. They are not as crowded as before.
