Escape SEL FWD 2.0 Excellent Small SUV

2013 Ford Escape Titanium 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
3 of 4 people found this review helpful
Love the body style, with the 2.0 turbo engine, powerful, fuel efficient on regular fuel and quiet. Quality materials throughout and workmanship appears to be first class. Blue tooth, navigation, Sony sound system (awesome!) with Ford "My Touch" and "Sync" is well integrated, user friendly and works flawlessly. The Escape has a firm sporty ride but is not harsh and can carve up twisty turns and curves better than most cars with exhilarating fun and confident authority. Heated leather seats are supportive and comfortable even on long drives. Storage space is pretty generous and can haul 3500 pounds with optional towing package with ease. Absolutely enjoy driving it every day.
Disappointed

I traded in a Rav4 lease for this 2013 Escape. On the plus side the power is fantastic and it looks great. On the neg side less room than the Rav, milege is no where near the 30 highway even after reaching the 5K mile break in period. Controls are difficult to reach. Everything falls out of the glove box when you open it and it is very small. It doesn't feel as solid. This is my first American car in a long time. I will go for the Honda CRV next time. Very disappointed.

Ford Really Delivered !!

Traded my VW Beetle (don't make me tell you about the endless problems with that horrible thing!!) In november 2012 for a new 2013 Escape with a 1.6 liter motor. It's just a terrific little car. Gutsy with a butter smooth transmission. Great in Canadian winters although it's FWD not 4 WD. It's roomy and comfortable even for a big guy like me. Seems reasonably good on gas, although I've never actually tested it. Lots of room in the cargo area. Really nothing to complain about in the 8 years I've been driving it. Still amazed at the quiet power of this tiny motor. Excellent both city and highway. Keep toying with the idea of trading it on a new one but can't really see the advantage.

Reliable Escape

My Escape has been very reliable. In the beginning I had a fairly large number of dealer required recalls but overall they were painless and the Escape has been very reliable and comfortable to drive. If I have one complaint it is that the battery is a pain to replace. Nothing impossible but still requires you to remove a cowling that takes time to both remove and reinstall. Otherwise a well thought out car. Highway mileage is consistently in the 30s except in extreme winter weather where it drops to about 27.

A Nice car but has flaws

2013 Ford Escape S 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl 6A)
4 of 6 people found this review helpful
Pros: The first impression is this is a good looking car. The interior is well laid out and includes what all back seat passengers want, rear air vents. Acceleration is good and the car handles well. Cons: Steering over compensates in panic situations. The Air/Heat controls not easy to use, unles using the display screen. The entertainment system starts with music on low then suddenly blasts you. Entertainment system changes mode when car starts(radio, MP3, Satelite). Only get 310 miles per tank of gas. Driver seat occasionally adjusts full forward when engine turned off. Too many controls on steering column is distracting and confusing.
