So far it's great!

We just got the car, so not sure that I can really rate properly for reliability. But we like the car so far - it's very comfortable for my family. Plenty of room and feels nice to drive.

I am constantly having to fix things cosmeticly. The parts are to expensive to have to keep doing it. It feels like a money pit and ford has lowered it's quality.

Awesome vehicle

Plenty of comfortable room for passengers and/or hauling. The dash area is well laid-out and convenient. Seems to be a smooth and quiet ride. I love the options on it!

Love this car

I absolutely love this car, it is so comfy and gets great gas milage for an SUV. It has held up great and I've only thought of selling it because I want a car.

Most Reliable Care I Owned

This car is very roomy and spacious. Engine runs smoothly and the sunroof makes for a great look. The third row seat is my favor perk of this vehicle. Overall I give it five stars.
