research usability before buying and 2013 model comments..wish we did
We bought a 2014 Escape and noticed the following:<br> - no driver storage for wallet, change or anything ...only 2 cup holders when not being used;<br> - glove box is out of reach even for a tall driver and offers no storage capacity;<br> -transmission blocks dash controls;<br> - MPG :/<br> - Center console is useless as a 1.5 foot narrow fishing hole that houses the USB connection half way down;<br> door panel cup holder is non-functional as it's too narrow to fit our drinks;<br> some interior plastic is not wearing well;<br> firm narrow seats
Patience, "flamers"...
I know folks who can't accept fact that not everything works 100% 24/7/365! Bought my '14 Escape SE 7 months ago. One problem (below) ONLY issue! My Escape is a solid "works right first-time every time vehicle. 2.0 turbo made it thru last Chicago's MEGA-BRUTAL winter with ZERO issues... no slow-crank, stuck windows/doors, great heat after 4 mi. city driving, MPG dropped less than 6% etc. A few 95+ F days this year were totally bearable due to A++ A/C system. ISSUE: high beam bulb "exploded" one -22F morn, leaving small dark spot on inner surface. Ford replaced entire assy w/o hassle! No squeaks, rattles, noises. SYNC system needs improvement, but iPhone 5 sync works each day,

Learned my lesson
My 1992 Honda Civic was in shop having scheduled maintenance done, timing belt+water pump replaced at 360k miles. I received call my sister had an accident in Memphis, TN. So my neighbor graciously loaned me her silver 2014 Ford Escape SE with 32k miles. It drove good, was fairly comfortable, and had good radio. However, in my 200 mile trip, car stopped working for no reason. I called friend and was told by Ford to have it towed to authorized service center. Luckily I was close enough for brother-in-law to pick me up. Found out later it was an electrical problem. Three days later I picked it up and returned it to neighbor. Within week she had same electrical problem occur again.

Don't buy an escape!!
We have had this car for going on 3 years now. And since we purchased it,it started having problems! It's shutters and idles rough and loose power when sitting or driving! Pushing the gas doesn't help at all! Ford told me it was the purge valve canister stuck open and that was the problem. It fixed it for about 2 months and now having the same problem! Can't use cruise control because it jerks hard and loose power! It shifts hard into 2-3rd gears! Ford is not helpful and doesn't no anything!!! Backup camera works when it wants,that started failing not even after 1 year of purchase! I take very good of my cars so none of these problems are my fault.!!!!! No check engine lights come on or anything!! The only light that's came on is low tire pressure when I hit a pothole and it blew my tire and damaged the rim. This car has been nothing but problems and is unreliable!! Bank said the only thing I can do is sell it,or trade it in! And can't do either one! Just don't go buy ford! Spend your money somewhere else.
