2022 Ford Escape consumer reviews

3rd recall so far. For needs to pay for mileage and loss time. 35 miles round trip. 70 miles drop 70 miles pickup time 3. 8 hr of time each time. Plus a second car because no replacement car. So two people for there lack of quality

I purchased used '22 Escape SE AWD two years old, low mileage and delighted with my dealer purchase. Upon extensive research, I was aware the loss of market value, which is why I purchased used. This vehicle is produced in volume as 'low-end' entry among 22 field competitors. Yes, there are several vehicles out there higher rated, more expensive, but my research validated highest cargo storage - highest mpg, for the reasonable market price. You can benefit from this depreciation by buying used! Some complain of the transmission, or slow pickup, or passenger door side panels. I have had no issues after 20,000 miles 6/2024 and get 31.3 mpg combined which is stellar!! A great value for the used car price-not new price. I would recommend as a reasonable value, HIGH capacity SUV can accommodate 4 airport passengers full size luggage is my first Ford of 21 cars purchased. Styling is very attractive, good assortment of safety features. Rear seats slide for extended passenger or cargo capacity.

Love my 2022 SE PHEV. Purchased from Carmax. Comfortable cloth seats, rear seat legroom is great, electronics are way above average especially the iPhone connectivity. Large cargo space behind rear seat. Nice looking 18” wheels. Have only purchased two gas fill ups since Oct 2023. I really have no complaints.

We have had this car for year now. We have taken it to two dealerships because it vibrates and makes a noise going 25mph or less. All they do is say the diagnostic computer says nothing is wrong. If this is how ford makes there vehicles now, this will be the last time I buy a ford. The drivers seat is very uncomfortable. My back hurts after seating in it for 10 minutes. Do not recommend buying a 2022 escape.

We just bought a 2022 ford escape, it only had 1 owner, and the mileage was at 20,000. Now a month later , when i either go thru a car wash or wet roads my brakes squeal for the 1st few times. A loud squeal. I called the dealer i bought it from and they say its normal. I can believe the ford company is okay with this issue. This escape make our 3 in a row for vehicles. Our last one was over 200,000 miles on it. But if this is the new normal for the ford company, this will be our last ford for sure. Very sad with this purchase.

I have no had this car too long. So far, so good. But I have owned previous Escapes. Lots of added features on this one!

Fully loaded titanium model and it still has some of the same cheap materials as the SE model. Nice comfortable ride with adequate space for a small SUV with getting you the good MPGs you want in a hybrid. Pros: Gas mileage, full LED dash, great headlights. Cons: Cheap dash material, unpainted bumpers/fender flares, cheap heads up display. Recalls due to possible engine failure in the 2.5 hybrid engine.

I’ve had my 2022 Ford escape for a year in October, it’s hard to believe that the value has dropped from $35,000 that I paid one year ago to 18,0000. Makes me sick !!! The driver seat is extremely uncomfortable, I do drive for a living at least three times a month round-trip being up to 600 miles. I find it very hard to get out of the car after I’ve driven at least for a couple of hours the seat kills my back and kills my legs. I would not recommend this car to anyone.

I purchased new nine months ago. No problems. Lots of good options. Good mileage. Up to 35 mpg on highway using cruise control. Acceleration is excellent. A lot of room for a small suv. The only thing I don't like is the dial shifter. I prefer a stick. In my opinion this is an excellent all around suv. It doesn't do everything and it doesn't please everyone but show me a car that does. I would recommend it.

This car looks very nice but is made as cheaply as humanly possible. As soon as I drove us away I noticed the brakes squeaked LOUDLY as I backed up. The front wheels are constant filthy due to the cheap brake pad used. There are black (rust?) marks coming from the mirrors and handles if I don’t get a car wash for a few weeks. Also, within a month, the battery died in one of the two key fobs that came with it and they wanted me to replace it on my dime. The system is glitchy and has trouble hooking up with my phone and disconnects while I’m having phone conversations via Bluetooth. I’d like to add this is the 3rd Ford Escape I’ve consecutively leased because I had loved the car so much in the past. I can’t believe the downgrade in quality with the 2022 model. You may not notice if you’ve never driven an escape before but this is the worst car I’ve ever leased. Poor quality in a pretty little package.
