DO NOT BUY A FORD ESCAPE!!!

I had a 2018 Ford Escape. The car was losing power and not running right. The dealership said metal got into the oil and the engine needed to be replaced. Only 74K miles on the car. Said the engine replacement would cost $13K. I will never buy another Ford. Now I see so many complaining of the same type of issue on the internet. How can Ford allow this to happen? Terrible company.

Overall experience is all good

Reliable, good on it's fuel mileage for being a 4wd compact suv. Fun to drive around in this styling vehicle. It has a nice quality looking interior design. Comfortable seats, heated and the rear seats reclining for comfort, and they fold down for that extra cargo space. Stereo is nice, comes with a cd player and other apps. These are nice suvs, they hold there value reputation really well.

It's a nice looking suv with a good reputation

Handling is really good, gas mileage is efficient. Styling body design, and the interior looks good. Comfortable seats, heated. Nice cargo area, luggage rack on top. Trailer hitch is important for me. Just overall, excellent review. It's a good compact size suv being 4wd
