My 2012 escape has a salvaged title.

My 2012 escape has a salvaged title. Was hit in the front. Only replacements I’ve made since purchase is the radiator and brakes/rotors. It gets me where I need to go. Good for the price I bought it. Currently has 169,000 miles on it. Can definitely drive for longer. I see many complaints about conditions of their car but that all depends on the previous owner.

horrible car.

horrible car. i received it used from my aunt. i don’t remember how many miles were on it when i received it, but somewhere in the 100’s. upon buying it off her, there were so many problems. frame was loose, extreme rusting. got those fixed, and more problems fell upon me the next year or two. rusting got even more worse and was starting to snap off on the trunk, frame became loose again, SEVERE water leaking into car causing damage to the fabrics and a constant mildewy and moldy smell, ac broke ever since i got it so that happened before i even got it just never had the money to fix it, headlights sucked butt feel like can’t see nothing at night. and now, at the almost 190,000 mile mark, the microphone broke, the frame is AGAIN loose, head gasket blew about 10,000 miles back (at 170-180 ish). so many problems i can’t even continue to list off. truly a piece of xxxx car, glad my aunt sold to me cheap. not worth putting money into.
